I grew up and currently reside in Maryland – the state of the blue crab. I’ve always loved seafood and my all time favorite are crabs! There are so many different ways to eat them, too! You can pick them with friends – we’ve done this multiple times – you can make crab cakes, and more like this delicious and cheesy crab dip.
Whether you pick the crabs yourself, or you buy crabmeat ready to go, crab dip is a delicious treat to have any time. It takes a few simple ingredients and an oven as well as some crackers or chips and you’re good to go!
My brother in law is getting married and his fiancée’s request for the rehearsal dinner is crab dip. So, I am going to make this for all of the guests. I need to make a double batch because it will go fast and I won’t want it to leave my house!
