Ingredients
  

  • 1 large English cucumber
  • 4 imitation crab sticks
  • ½ avocado
  • 2 tbsp Kewpie mayo
  • 2 tbsp whipped cream cheese
  • 1½ tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Slice the cucumber into thin rounds (about ⅛ inch thick). Thinner slices absorb more flavor. A mandolin makes this faster, but a sharp knife works too.
  • Dice the avocado into small cubes and chop the imitation crab into bite-sized pieces. Try to keep them all about the same size for consistency.
  • In a container or jar, combine Kewpie mayo, whipped cream cheese, soy sauce, and sesame seeds. Mix until smooth.
  • Add the cucumber, avocado, crab, and dressing to the container. Shake well until everything is coated. If you don’t have a jar, stir gently in a bowl.
  • Serve the salad straight from the jar or in a bowl. Top with extra sesame seeds for a crunchy finish. Enjoy right away or chill for a more refreshing bite.
