a new take on spaghetti

my mom has a recipe that i want to rave about. it's called spaghetti salad. if you're stuck on the traditional bolognese, fettucini, primavera or carbonara then, this isn't for you. but if want to try a delicious variation to the al dente noodles that we usually devour then read on.

here are the ingredients:

spaghetti noodles
cucumber
tomatoes
crabsticks

mc cormick salad supreme dressing
classic italian dressing (vinaigrette)

ground black pepper

(please forgive me because i cannot supply how much of each ingredient you should prepare...what kind of a recipe is this? :))

cook the noodles as directed and set aside. wash tomatoes and cucumbers, peel (if desired) and cube then set aside. remove crabsticks from wrapper and cut into bite-size pieces then set aside.

place the noodles in a container, add the tomatoes, cucumbers and crabsticks. add ground black pepper, italian dressing and mccormick salad supreme seasoning. mix well and enjoy!


for variety, my mom says you may also add shrimps and ham...

i tell you, it's different and delicious! try it!
