Loved this recipe. It was perfect with our left over crab. I ended up doubling the amount of Tapatio hot sauce because i like a cick and it was perfect. Saving this recipe to have and enjoy again.

Great elevation on a basic Louie dressing-we made the salad with grilled shrimp , added avocado and white beans-excellent!

My husband LOVED it and so did I, but we have more adventurous taste buds than most. It’s going to be our New Year’s Special Crab Louie from now on!
