I wanted to make a Crab Louis Salad and found this recipe, but also looked for another to cross-reference. I found one in the Joy of Cooking and this one is identical! The only difference is that Joy said that you could alternatively use a red or yellow bell pepper as well, which I was planning on doing anyway because that's what I had. The Louis dressing was delicious and I added some cooked asparagus and avocado to the end result.
