Crab Dip

A.K.A. Crab Salad
A.K.A. Crab Spread

Gourmet?  Most certainly not.  Delicious?  No doubt about it.

This recipe originally comes from my mother-in-law.  I have tweaked it a bit, but it is still essentially the same. Whenever I take this to gatherings, I get tons of compliments.  Yes, I know imitation crab is not considered fine dining, but by-golly, people like it in this recipe.  In my book, that is all that matters!

Our favorite way to eat this is atop Club Crackers or Wheat Thins.  Delish!

Here is what you will need!

Crab Dip

1/4-1/2 c. sliced black olives
1 c. diced celery
11/2 c. shredded cheddar
1 tsp. dill weed
1 lb. imitation crab meat, diced
3/4-1 c. Mayo (Hellman's is best)
1/2 c. sliced green onions

Combine all ingredients together.  Either serve immediately, or refrigerate until you are ready to serve!  

Best eaten cold and on Club crackers or Wheat Thins in my opinion!
