Quick and easy pasta salad. I prefer to use the vegetable rotini as it gives the dish more color. I prefer this pasta salad cold but can be eaten hot. I have also listed a healthier version is to use Italian salad dressing place of the Miracle Whip.

How To Make seafood pasta salad

  • 1
    Cook pasta according to package directions. The last few minutes of cooking the pasta add the peas and finish cooking.

    When done cooking, drain and rinse with cold water. Let the mixture cool for approximately an hour, unless you prefer your pasta dish hot.
  • 3
    Cut the imitation crab into bite size chunks. After the pasta has cooled add the artificial crab and mix with Miracle Whip. As as much Miracle Whip as you like.

    A lighter alternative is to use Italian salad dressing instead of Miracle Whip.
