A refreshing crab salad sandwich bursting with flavors, perfect for a light lunch or gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound crab meat (preferably lump crab for texture)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (or to taste)
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 slices whole wheat or sourdough bread
  • Optional toppings: Fresh herbs (like dill or parsley), lettuce, or tomato slices

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crab Filling: In a mixing bowl, gently fold the crab meat to separate the lumps while being careful not to break them down too much.
  2. Mix in the Creaminess: Add in the mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, along with the Dijon mustard. Stir gently until the crab is coated in the creamy mixture.
  3. Add Veggie Goodness: Fold in the finely chopped celery, red bell pepper, and green onion.
  4. Add Zing: Drizzle in the lemon juice, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Construct Your Sandwich: Lay out your slices of bread and generously spoon the crab filling onto half of the slices. Add optional toppings if desired.
  6. Slice and Serve: Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, slice it diagonally, and serve immediately.

Notes

Pair with coleslaw or light cucumber salad. Best served fresh.
