First, I want to thank you so much for trying one of my recipes (Garlic Boursin Cheese Spread) and the lovely review. To show my appreciation, I decided to make this one. Boy and I glad i did. This is a WONDERFUL crab salad. We loved the combination of ingredients and textures. I did add a little more Miracle Whip than called for as we wanted more dressing. Can't wait to make this again. Thanks so much for sharing it, jo_mama!!!

I really enjoyed this. Nice and light, very crunchy, and a good flavor. I used a scallion instead of the onion as it was what I had on hand. If you like a lot of dressing, this is not the salad for you. As I like my dressings very light, this was perfect. I crushed up the crackers too fine though--next time I'll just break them up a bit. I liked when I got a noticable cracker bit. Thanks jo_mama for a lovely lunch today!
