Salad Ingredients- 2 packages of imitation crab meat (or real crab meat)

- 1/2 sweet apple
- 1/2 small onion
- 1/2 bell pepper (any color)
- 1/4 head of cabbage
- 1 ripe avocado
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing all your salad ingredients. You’ll need 2 packages of crab meat, 2 large lettuce leaves, 1/2 sweet apple, 1/2 small onion, 1/2 bell pepper, 1/4 head of cabbage, and 1 ripe avocado. Wash all vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry. Then, chop or julienne the vegetables into bite-sized pieces for easy eating. For the avocado, remove the pit, peel it, and cut it into cubes or slices.
Step 2
Arrange the 2 lettuce leaves on your serving plate or in a salad bowl. You can tear the lettuce leaves into manageable pieces for a more rustic look.
Step 3
Add the julienned cabbage (about 1/4 head) on top of the lettuce. The crisp texture of the cabbage will add a delightful crunch to the salad.
Step 4
Next, sprinkle the julienned bell pepper (1/2 pepper) over the salad. Using a colorful bell pepper like red or yellow will enhance the visual appeal of your salad.
Step 5
Add the thinly sliced onion (1/2 onion) to the salad. If you find raw onion too strong, you can soak the slices in cold water for about 5 minutes and then drain them before adding.
Step 6
Now, add the julienned apple (1/2 apple) to the salad. Remember to core and peel the apple before slicing. The apple will contribute a subtle sweetness and refreshing tartness.
Step 7
Gently shred the 2 packages of crab meat with your fingers and distribute them evenly over the salad. The tender crab meat is the star of this salad, adding a savory depth of flavor.
Step 8
Finally, arrange the sliced or cubed avocado (1 avocado) attractively on the side of the salad. The creamy texture of the avocado will balance the other flavors and add a luxurious feel.
Step 9
Drizzle the oriental dressing generously over the entire salad. Adjust the amount of dressing to your preference. Your vibrant Oriental Crab and Avocado Salad is now complete and ready to be enjoyed! Savor the harmonious blend of fresh ingredients.
