  1. This is a great, easy, good tasting light pasta salad. I had a housefull of workmen in my house today, and my access to the kitchen was limited. I am not a crab eater, even though DH is. I had some grilled chicken in my freezer, and I substituted that for the crab. This was all we had for lunch, and it was satisfying and tasted so good. Thanks Kim, for posting this recipe. I will make it again. I am also sending it to my daughter because they have pot luck at her workplace often.
     
  2. Great salad. I used a small bag of peas. More peas than my family liked. Will use 10oz box next time. Really easy to make. Taste even better the next day. Will make again.
     
  3. I liked this, but I did not love it. I had to add quite a bit of salt and pepper, and it still seemed like it was missing something.
     
  4. I used half ranch, half mayo, as well as shrimp... I also added garlic powder and greek seasoning, cucumber instead of peas, and left out the onion. :-)
     
  5. I don't care for frozen peas, so used fresh broccoli instead - still tastes great and is so easy.
