vegetarian, flexitarian, pescatarian friendly
I will be sharing many recipes throughout my blog site but you will find recipes in specific categories of your eating choice. I wanted to share this recipe because it is one of my creations that I just made up and gobbled up. I have always loved imitation crab and still eat it often, though I eat mostly vegan. However, I am very picky with how the imitation crab taste, I guess it’s because of how it’s packaged and what they use to preserve it. I finally found a brand that I am in love with and has less ingredients used for its freshness. It’s from Trans Ocean and from the Simply Surimi line of their products. I use the flake style because it’s easy to shred for the salad. This recipe is vegetarian friendly.
Anyways, I have had this salad with club crackers, sourdough bread, fresh white bread and butter croissant. The large croissants are my absolute favorite is the large butter croissant. I lightly toast it and add the salad to my bread and then garnish it with Alfalfa and/or cilantro. This recipe creation has been a winner with my family. I sure hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I have made this recipe to be downloadable or you can print it.
