This is a recipe that was going around in the 70's. I use 1 cup fresh seafood for each of each the canned ingredients now, but I'm posting this as it is on my old recipe card. This is a base recipe, and very versatile. You can add seasonings, fresh herbs, sweet pickle relish, etc. I use tri- colored spiral pasta.

2 (6 ounce) cans shrimp (drained)
1 (6 ounce) can crab (drained)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts (drained)
3 cups uncooked pasta shells (cooked)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
salt and pepper

Directions

1
Mix seafood and lemon juice.
2
Combine all ingredients. Refrigerate over night.

This is lucious! A great summer salad that can be made up earlier in the day. We loved the "crunch" of the water chestnuts (I quartered them). I served it on top of lettuce leaves. Thanks for sharing this delightful salad. Can't wait to make it again.

Very good basic recipe that is very versatile as stated. I took the liberty of adding a few ingredients such as dill pickle relish, sweet pickle relish, some chopped celery, hard boiled eggs, the juice of the whole lemon then spiced it up with some ground red pepper. Yummy. Thanks Dee for posting.

A simple recipe that can be adjusted to suit taste and takes a matter of minutes to prepare. I increased the lemon juice and added in chopped celery, lots of black pepper for this, don't omit the chestnuts! thanks for a great recipe Dee!...Kitten
