Easy and delicious. That’s exactly what this copycat of the crab salad at Golden Corral is. You can easily up-size this to make a big ole batch for a crowd without breaking the bank. That’s the point. This is a good, inexpensive dish that is perfect as a side and even better piled up on a bun or bread as a sandwich. Either way, you won’t be disappointed!
Salad. Or A Dip. Great Both Ways.
You can also serve this copycat Golden Corral crab salad as an appetizer. It’s great on crackers, so feel free to serve it as a dip. Or grab some mini-croissants and serve it as finger food at your next party. I could see myself eating my share and then some.
I haven’t tried it yet, but I’d also bet that this salad would be good with imitation lobster too! And hey, if you want to put in real crab or lobster instead, go for it!
I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.
Also try my crab pasta salad. And hey, my poor man’s lobster rolls are the bomb too!
