This pasta salad is a great way to use up leftover crab. I also like to add a bit of chopped cucumber for extra crunch.

This was a great recipe! The only change I made was to use frozen peas instead of fresh, and it turned out just as well. I also added a bit of lemon zest to the dressing, which gave it a nice citrusy kick.
