Yeah for random whims!!

So LeLe and I had a random whim to get imitation crab and just eat it! So we did! Well, sort of. :) Come to find out, you can only eat so much imitation crab plain! So we had 3/4th's of a package left and decided to find a recipe to use it. We found a few that looked good, but the ingredients were to expensive. We found a few others that sounded fantastic, but we're kinda lazy and they were a lot of work and time! So finally we decided on a crab pasta salad! It was fantastic!! Easy, inexpensive, and actually pretty healthy! So here is the recipe!

Crab Pasta Salad

INGREDIENTS
2 cups uncooked medium shell pasta
1 1/2 cups imitation crabmeat, chopped
1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 cup diced green pepper
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 1/4 cup meduim olives, halved
DRESSING:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup creamy Italian salad dressing
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONSCook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse in cold water. Place in a large bowl. Stir in crab, broccoli, green pepper, tomatoes and onions. Combining dressing ingredients; pour over salad and toss gently to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours before serving.

It only took us about 10 minutes to prepare the whole salad. It is super simple and very delicious! This is also a really good base to start with. You could also add cucumbers or peas. I think I might experiment with some other things. My sister even suggested spicing it up a bit for those who love spicy food.

Hope you enjoy this as much as we did!!

Yeah!! Progress!!

I've been putting this off for so long. Even though I have really wanted to do it, I just didnt know where to start!! So I'm taking the first step toward sanity while living in my parents house. I've decided to rearrange my room, and in fact, completely redo the interior! I'm going for an aqua and chocolate color palate. I've been looking for a bed spread in those colors, but I find that I am very picky about what I want!! Today and yesterday I did a lot of looking for that, but today I also decided to get a new computer desk!! I bought one and set it up in my room, and I love it!! It fits perfectly, and gives me so much more space to work with!! So, hopefully this week I'll find a comforter so I can pick paint colors and then I can get to the reall work! I'm excited!
