Pin It
It has been unseasonably warm the past few weeks. Because of that I decided to bring a taste of summer in my lunch one day. I just couldn't eat heavy comfort food when the weather was so nice. This pasta salad is a great light lunch or side dish for a potluck. Feel free to substitute or add your favorite veggies or seafood. I think this would be great with shrimp or lobster.
Seafood Pasta Salad
1 12oz box whole wheat pasta, cooked, drained and cooled
1 8 oz package imitation crab meat
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup chopped celery
3 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1/2 cup fat free sour cream
juice and zest of one lemon
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp dill
salt and pepper
1. Cook, drain and cool pasta and place in a large bowl. Add crab, peas, celery and onions.
2. Mix mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, zest, garlic, dill and salt and pepper. Pour over pasta mixture. Mix to cover.
3. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Note - This can be made a day or two ahead. It tastes great as leftovers.
