Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pkg (12 oz.) rainbow rotini
1/2 tablespoon canola oil, vegetable oil, or olive oil (your preference)
1 tablespoon salt, divided
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
cans 1 or 2 (6 oz. each) crab meat or *1 fresh crab (1 or 2 lb.)
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup red onions
1 tablespoon Kraft Mayo
1/4 cup Kraft Miracle Whip or Light Mayo

Steps:

  • Cook rainbow rotini, oil and 1/2 tablespoon of salt at a medium heat in 3 quarts of rapidly boiling water for approx. 9 to 11 minutes or when pasta looks ready. It should be tender not soggy (that means it is over cooked). Remove and drain pasta. Use the same water to reheat the frozen mixed vegetables for about 1 minute -- just to heat up the vegetables and not toss them in the salad frozen. After vegetables heat up, drain them and have them ready to use.
  • Crab should be cooked and taken out from its shell if you are using fresh crab. Otherwise you can use canned crab meat.
  • Ready to mix..... In a salad bowl add all ingredients: drained pasta, mix vegetables, shredded lettuce, finely cut red onion, crab meat, real mayo and Miracle Whip (or light mayo) and 1/2 tablespoon of salt. Mix well and refrigerate until is ready to serve.
