WOW! WOW! WOW! This dip was great! I didn't have enough time to make this in the crock pot so I put it in the microwave for a couple of minutes, stirring after each minute and it turned out great.I did use 2 pkgs of Starkist's (?) real crabmeat instead of immitaion and added a little salt and crushed red pepper for some umph. Definitly a keeper and will be appearing on my holiday table- thank you for sharing!

This dip got rave reviews from my Bible study group who scraped the bowl clean. Luckily I was able to get a bit of the yummy stuff before it was gone. I didn't use the crockpot, since I thought it would be way too big, and baked it very slowly on 225 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring the ingredients together after 15 minutes. For substitutions,I used a can of lump crabmeat, and a small red spring onion, minced. I had some concern that this dip would be sort of bland and without any "kick" to it, but it was just perfect in every way. I will try out my small crockette for this dip next time, since I think the ingredients are the right amount.

I also have an eBay business which is a fun hobby that makes a little extra money! My interest in cooking focuses on making healthy dishes that are more satisfying than the higher fat and higher sugar versions. If I had a month off with no responsibilities, I would spend it at a luxury spa. <br /> <br /></p>
