Crab and Egg Salad is a refreshing, protein-packed dish often seen in coastal and seafood cuisine. Combining tender crab meat, boiled eggs, crisp vegetables such as celery or cucumber, and a creamy dressing typically made from mayonnaise or yogurt, this salad offers a balance of flavors and textures. Fresh herbs like dill or parsley are commonly added to enhance its vibrant taste. Originating from seafood-rich areas, this salad highlights the natural sweetness of crab while incorporating nutrient-dense ingredients. Crab is a low-fat source of high-quality protein and key minerals like selenium and iodine, while eggs add heart-healthy omega-3s and essential vitamins. However, the mayonnaise-based dressing can be high in calories and fat, so light or yogurt-based alternatives may be preferred for a healthier option. Crab and Egg Salad is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side, appetizer, or light main course.
