CARIBBEAN CRAB SALAD
When we were in Jamaica several years ago we had this wonderful salad. The lady who prepared it for us was gracious enough to share the recipe. She said just don't substitute any of the ingredients or the results would not be the same. I make it just like she shared and have never been disappointed.

[email protected]I had a hard time finding fresh crab meat, so I used canned crab meat instead. The salad still turned out good, but I think it would have been better with fresh crab meat.
