Our family loves seafood, and this recipe is a nice switch from traditional sandwiches. I've served big slices of it for lunch, for Sunday brunch and as a light dinner with salad. —Louise Fauth, Foremost, Alberta

Ingredients

  • 1 pound imitation crabmeat, chopped
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup diced celery
