CRAB SALAD SANDWICH
My boyfriend makes me this breakfast in bed at least twice a week! If you're in the mood for spicy, I like add 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha chili sauce.

Crab sandwiches are delicate, so we prefer thin brioche toast with just crab, soft lettuce, a bit of creme fraiche, and some avocado.

CRAB SALAD SANDWICH (BROWN BAG RECIPE)
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.

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.).
- Add any additional toppings, such as tomatoes, olives etc at time of serving.
Tips:
- For the freshest crab salad, use freshly cooked crab meat. If you're using canned crab meat, be sure to drain it well and pick through it to remove any shells or cartilage.
- If you're using celery in your crab salad, be sure to dice it finely so that it doesn't overpower the other ingredients.
- For a creamy crab salad, use mayonnaise. For a lighter crab salad, use Greek yogurt or sour cream.
- Add some chopped fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, or chives, to your crab salad for extra flavor.
- Serve your crab salad on a bed of lettuce or arugula, or in a sandwich on your favorite bread.
Conclusion:
Crab salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as a snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give crab salad a try!
