Not a fan of raw tomatoes, so I added Sundried Tomatoes to this. I quadrupled the recipe, served at my daughters birthday party, and had multiple request for the recipe - and not much left over. Luckily, it's SUPER easy to make! Thanks Ms Lynn - this is a new favorite at my house!!! - 6/6/11

ok zeldaz51 I did this with real crab meat(because i like the real thing too) but i think it would have been just as good with imitation. It worked out wonderful and everyone loved it. I didn't add shrimp or ranch dressing, I actually did colored past as well. great recipe to tweak to your likings! - 6/22/08
