Equipment
- large mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped celery
- 1 cup of heavy mayonnaise
- 6 pounds of Imitation crab meat
- 1 cup ranch salad dressing
- 1 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 2 cups green chopped onion
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all the ingredients for your Golden Corral crab salad. Chop 2 cups of celery, 1 cup of green bell pepper, and 2 cups of green onion into small pieces. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy mayonnaise with 1 cup of ranch salad dressing. Mix until well combined. Once the dressing is ready, add in the chopped vegetables and mix until they are evenly coated. The mayonnaise and ranch dressing will provide a creamy base for the salad while the crunchy vegetables add texture and flavor. Finally, gently fold 6 pounds of imitation crab meat into the mixture. Be careful not to overmix as you want to keep the crab meat intact for a nice presentation.
- Put plastic wrap over the bowl and let it sit in the fridge for at least one hour. This helps the flavors mix.Once chilled, stir the salad and you can eat it alone or with something else.
Notes
- Make sure to chop all the vegetables into small pieces for easy eating.
- For a lighter version, you can use reduced-fat mayonnaise and ranch dressing.
- If you prefer, you can add in some extra ingredients such as diced tomatoes or shredded cheese for added flavor and texture.
