Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving, as the dressing may separate slightly.
- Real crab meat can be substituted for imitation crab.
- I noticed that some Cajun seasonings are spicier than others. Start with 1 teaspoon and add more to reach your desired taste.
