Crab Louis Pasta Salad

This week we are taking a look at a new invention of an old favorite: Crab Louis. This recipe was a surprise mostly because of the dressing, which by the way could be used on more than just a crab louis salad. But this dressing dresses out a crab louis perfectly. When you see the ingredients for the first time you will probably think what I did: this makes a good dressing? But it does. Just give it a try for yourself and see.
