I clipped this recipe from a magazine in the early 80's. It has been a family favorite ever since.
Ingredients:
3 quarts hot tap water
8 ounces uncooked rotini pasta
1 medium cucumber, peeled and chopped fine
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried dill
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
12 ounces imitation crabmeat
8 ounces fresh snow peas, trimmed and cut crosswise in halves
Directions:
1. Bring water to boil in a large pot.
2. Add pasta to boiling water and cook uncovered for 8 minutes or until tender but still firm.
3. Mix cucumber,mayo, lemon juice, dillweed and garlic in a large bowl. Add the seafood.
4. Thirty seconds before draining pasta, add snow peas.
5. Pour pasta and snow peas into colander; plunge colander in very cold water to chill contents. Drain Well. Add to dressing and stir to coat.
6. I like to refrigerate for a couple of hours to blend flavors. Tastes geat the second day too.
