CRAB SALAD SANDWICH (BROWN BAG RECIPE)



Crab Salad Sandwich (Brown Bag Recipe) image

This is a very simple recipe I threw together...nothing fancy...just a brown bag recipe to give a little variety at the office...I get so tired of ordinary sandwiches. I like to take this spread separately in a tupperware container and then take along toasted wheat bread in a ziploc and slices of tomatoes in another ziploc bag and assemble at work so it is not soggy. Very easy and really quite tasty. I suppose you could also add olives if you like them.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup imitation crabmeat, chopped medium fine
1/4 cup white onion, chopped fine
1/3 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1/3 cup light mayonnaise
2 slices whole wheat bread, toasted

Steps:

  • Mix first four ingredients together until well combined.
  • Serve as sandwich on bread of your choice, (I prefer toasted bread, though you could use english muffin or bagel.).

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.

  • If you don't have any dried cranberries, you can use raisins or chopped dried apricots instead.
  • If you're making this salad ahead of time, be sure to drain off any excess liquid before packing it in your lunch bag.
  • This salad is also a great option for a potluck or picnic.
