Imitation Crab Salad

I found this recipe on the internet and modified the recipe to my liking.  My husband thought it needed celery for crunch. So next time I would put that in, so I added it to the recipe, you won't see it in the pictures. 

RECIPE:
1/2 pound Cavatappi noodles, cooked and drained
1 pound imitation crab meat
8 ounces of a block of cheddar cheese, diced
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
1 1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced
2 Tbls fresh chives, minced
3/4 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise, Helmans
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh dill, minced
salt and pepper to taste

In a large bowl, combine the pasta, imitation crab, cheese, peas, celery, parsley and chives.

In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and dill.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Pour over pasta mixture and toss gently.  Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
