We’ve gotten a few requests for a seafood dip. Thanks to Nancy Dye and Marie Frazier for the suggestions. This is easy to customize and you can use substitute lobster for either seafood or just add it. You can make this either in the oven or the slow cooker.

To make this perfect summer side dish you will need, 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup light or regular sour cream, 1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, 1 tbsp grated onion, 1 cup mini salad shrimp, 12 oz lump crab meat, 3/4 tsp Old bay or seafood seasoning, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp finely chopped Italian parsley, 1 tsp hot sauce, 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper, crackers, baguette slices or tortilla chips for serving.

Oven Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350º. Place cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream in a medium mixing bowl and stir until creamy. Add remaining ingredients and stir again until well combined. Transfer to a small baking dish and place in oven. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until browned and bubbly. Serve with crackers, baguette slices, or tortilla chips.

Slow Cooker Instructions

Add all ingredients to a small ( 3-4 quart) slow cooker, stir to combine, and set on LOW for 2 hours.
