Preparation

• Prepare the dressing by stirring or whisking together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Old Bay Seasoning, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, sugar, and dill in a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Begin cooking the pasta according to package directions. Once the pasta has cooked, drain in a colander and rinse well with cold water until all of the pasta has cooled.
• While the pasta is cooking, chop the vegetables and slice the imitation crab meat into bite-size pieces (about 1 inch).
• Toss together the imitation crab, celery, red onion, bell pepper, and peas in a very large mixing bowl. Add the drained and cooled pasta and toss again to combine.
• Add the dressing to the pasta mixture and gently stir to coat as evenly as possible.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. Stir before serving to redistribute the dressing.
