I love the flavors in this pasta salad with the addition of the lemon, shrimp and Old Bay Seasoning! I often substitute whole wheat pasta in this dish… I also double the mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning and lemon, adding half when I initially make it, then just before serving I add some more, so it isn’t dry after sitting in the fridge for flavors to meld… Sometimes I just double up on the shrimp or the crabmeat instead of using both together… Either way, this recipe is a KEEPER for sure!
