Pretty good! I also added parmesan. Accidentally forgot the almond!
Scott Trevino
This was good, I did make a few changes though. I used a three cheese blend, omitted the almonds!and it came out wonderful. I will definitely make this again.
Melody Owens

After tasting this salad, I knew this would go over like a lead balloon as it was rather tasteless and dry. No better than a 3*. Mixed up a concoction of sour cream, more lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and fresh dill, and also added Creole Seasoning Blend from this site. These substantial changes made it enjoyable to eat. I would search for an alternative recipe when wanting to make another seafood salad.

Serve it for the fourth as a side dish, my mistake was not making more

I found this recipe just before Memorial Day and by the description and comments, decided to give it a try. It was a very big hit. It was requested for a party for my Aunt’s 50th birthday this past weekend. She had not experienced it the first time on Memorial Day, but after her birthday, she has already requested that i make it again for her when she drives from PA to NY for the Jazz Festival at the end of the month. That is three times within one month and twice specifically requested. Great recipe.

I really hate it when people rate a recipe that they didn’t make per specifications, but I have to admit, I omitted and substituted and tweeked this recipe. However, I stuck with the bones of it; such as using white onion instead of green, used way more mayo (I think that was due to the amount of seafood I used), used celery but not bell pepper (didn’t have it), forgot the lemon juice (duh!),and left out the cheese. I’m just not a huge shredded-cheese-in-a-pasta-salad type gal. I used more Old Bay and Parsely, too, probably due to the large amount I made. Unintentionally, of course. So I’ll be eating it for days. Thank God it’s a 5 star!!
Richard Randall
AWESOME RECIPE! I used imitation crab meat and followed the recipe exactly. It is the best seafood salad I have ever tasted! Thanks so much for sharing!
Claire Oneill
Very recipe. I made it exactly except I only had a handful of almonds. I actually think next time I’d omit them comletely because I don’t think they add anything to the dish. Other than that, it was perfect.
Dana Bell
I used that “fake” crabmeat and good local shrimp. It was pretty good, but next time will use real crabmeat if I can afford it or just shrimp alone. That fake crabmeat is awful.
Danielle Nelson
Pretty standard seafood salad. Should have added much more Old Bay seasoning to it.
Jaime Nicholson
This is absolutely nice. We would love to use that recipe in our restaurant. Well done.
Dalton Thompson
I love this recipe! Everytime I make this I have an empty bowl before it’s time to go. I tend to add a little Louisianna Shrimp Boil instead of Old Bay to give more of a cajun kick, this dish is always a hit!
Heather Turner
I used this recipe as a base for an alternative shrimp pasta salad (I didn’t have all the ingredients for my usual critically acclaimed πŸ™‚ salad, so was looking for a different recipe). I omitted the crab, mozzarella and almonds, didn’t have Old Bay (subbed paprika, garlic and onion powders, celery seed, salt, pepper), and added 1 chopped cucumber. For the dressing, subbed more than half the mayonnaise with lowfat plain yogurt. Very very good. Although I do want to try with Old Bay sometime πŸ™‚ Thank you for the recipe!
Dr. Michele Miller
Fabulous!! Took to a pot luck full of pasta salad, came back with an empty dish and recipe requests. Will make many more times!
Robert Gilbert
Not sure I should rate this since I was lacking many of the ingredients…but I was inspired by this and it was AWESOME!!! I was low on mayo – so used 1/2 Light mayo and 1/2 Miracle whip, canned crab meat – which I sauteed in butter and garlic. I also had fully cooked shrimp in cilantro/lime sauce. Used some Beau Monde Seasoning with the Old Bay..I cooked more then 8oz pasta – just used what was left in box! No green onion (but wld be great with it), no celery – added red and green peppers! It was sooo yummy! Thanks for the base!!
Patricia Robinson
Great salad!!! Made it for our quilting Christmas party. Doubled the receipe (works good) lined the plater with lettuce, garnished with parsley, lemons and limes (should have taken a picture; sorry I didn’t, everyone commented on how appetizing it looked). Fabulous HIT. They LOVED it and so did our neighbors and friends. Most of the time people ask for the recipe, this time they came with their own paper and pen to write it down. After reading the reviews about the seasoning and mayo. I tried this and it seemed to work good. Stir fry your shrimp and crab(I used imitation crab) in butter and crushed garlic, then sprinkle Old Bay on the seafood mixture while it’s warm. After the pasta has cooled, sprinkle with Old Bay and mix well.I prepared the dressing with equal amounts of sour cream and mayo, then added lemon juice, Old Bay, 4 tbsp milk, 2 tbsp vinegar and a couple of dashes of vinegar (total of 5 cups in all), but remember I doubled the recipe. The neighbors, the quilters, our friends loved your recipe. Thank you so very much for sharing. I will definately make this again; over and over. Both the men and ladies LOVED IT. p.s. I also added red pepper for color and some shredded cheddar. FABULOUS!!!! Thank you
