Blue Ribbon Recipe by

I had a hot crab dip in Virginia and loved it. Here is my recipe. Double the recipe for more than 6 people. You can also use a can of white crab meat instead of a packet of crab. Crab directly from crab legs will work of course. Also, please do not use imitation crab.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Rich and savory, we couldn't stop eating this crab dip. It's creamy and cheesy with crab throughout. Super easy to make, serve with pita chips, celery, or a buttery cracker for a wonderful appetizer. This is on the saltier side, though. If needed, slightly cut back on the garlic salt and onion salt. It will still be delicious!
