Ingredients

8 ounces pasta shells (medium size )
8 ounces imitation crab meat (flake style, shredded )
3/4 cup red bell pepper (diced )
4 tbsps red onion (diced)
2 celery ribs (diced )
3/4 cup salad dressing (Miracle Whip or store brand labeled "salad dressing")
1 cup mayo
3 tbsps whole milk
3 tbsps white wine vinegar
2 tbsps granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp old bay seasoning

Steps:

Boil pasta until al dente. Once tender, remove from heat, strain, and rinse with cold water until pasta is cool. Drain excess water.
Chop all veggies and mince crab meat.
Add ingredients to a large bowl with the dressings, mayo, spices, and pasta.
