Cucumber Salad: California Roll

 

I love these viral cucumber salads. "Sometimes you just gotta eat a whole cucumber." This is a take on the classic California Sushi Roll, with crab stick, cream cheese, avocado, and, of course, cucumber.

Imitation crab salad

Seafood salad, imitation crab (or krab or kani) salad. An American classic that's super quick and easy to whip up and tasty. High salt content because of the krab, so watch out!
