Crab and Artichoke Dip

"From "The Best Of" on Food Network. Edit: Mommy Diva was kind enough to try this recipe before I'd had a chance to make it and we both agree it SHOULDN'T be pureed! Dips should have texture so feel free to place in a casserole dish after simmering for a few minutes. Top with bread crumbs and bake according to directions. Enjoy!"

  1. Delicious! A little salt, pepper, and some cayenne add extra to this recipe.
     
  2. This was absolutely delicious - we just loved it. I used marinated artichoke hearts, and regular white onion as I could not find shallots at the grocery. No matter - this was heavenly. I did not puree !! I served on toasted rounds of cuban bread. Thanks so much posting - this has been added to my favorites. Made for Spring PAC 2012.
     
  3. Four of us tonight tried this and really loved the flavor - but everyone agreed that next time we make it we will skip the puree step - we want a bit more texture! (personal preference - but it sure looked and tasted good after the saute BEFORE puree!!) I did end up using frozen spinach that I squeezed all the water out of - and two full packages of boursin ( slightly over 5oz each I think they are). I also melted a bit of Jarlsberg cheese I had on the top to add to the garnish - but gave you pics both ways! Great flavor and I will make again - for a party - this DEFINITELY feeds a bigger group! No one had room for dinner and we only managed to demolish 1/3 - very rich and delightful!! Thanks for a splendid recipe Rickoholic!! ;)
