Hot Crab Dip

I made this last night for a dinner party and it was a HUGE hit.  Gone in seconds!  I went to the local chinese restaurant and had them fry me won ton strips almost like chips and walked out with 2 big bags for $4!! Yes you heard me right, four dollars!  This was significantly cheaper than me making my own (which you could very well do, and would probably be healthier)

8 oz cream cheese softened
1 cup sour cream
4 Tbsp mayo
4 Tbsp butter, softened
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 Tbsp diced jalapenos (I think I added more than that just because I like things spicy)
1 tsp seasoned salt (you could also use Old Bay)
cracked pepper to taste
dash of hot sauce
1/2 tsp Paprika
2 (6 oz) cans white crab, drained
1 cup mozzarella cheese

Blend first 4 ingredients until smooth, add salt, paprika, pepper, and hot sauce.  Blend.  Stir in the rest of the ingredients and bake @ 325 for 30 min.  I also added a little parmesan cheese and put more mozzarella cheese on top for the last 5 minutes of baking.  Tasted very much like crab rangoon if you're a fan of it like me, yum yum yum!

  1. I fear that this dip would be TOO good; as in, I would not be able to stop eating it!

  2. yeah it was that good Kel, good thing is you could use everything low fat. And the crab has a lot of protein...but it would still have to be in moderation :( Last night that wasn't a problem for me because I had to fight to get one "chip"
