It's an easy, light lunch, but I made this just as written and it just seemed so bland. I even added extra onion and garlic powder. The testure was nice... a little crunchiness here and there. I really thought it would have more flavor to it. The recipe is certainly worth playing around with. Thanx for sharing!

This made a great light lunch that I served with avocado slices and tomato wedges. I also have to agree with WI Cheesehead about the flavor. Something was lacking so I increased the garlic, pepper and dijon slightly. I also added a bit of kosher salt. All in all, a great, easy recipe. Thanks for sharing! **Made for I Recommend..**

This is very refreshing and easy to prepare. I hollowed out two tomatoes and put the salad inside. This is a fancy tasting and looking lunch that does not require fancy ingredients. Imitation crabmeat is usually on sale at my grocery store every couple of weeks. Thanks for adding some pizzaz to my lunch hour. :)

I used lowfat cottage cheese and sour cream and left out the celery. Also used Vidalia onion. For some reason, it didn't seem to have enough flavor for me. I added more mustard and garlic pepper and then tried some hot sauce. It's probably just me! Made for 123.
