Hot Crab Dip

Recipe adapted by Terri @ that’s some good cookin’, original source: Julie, her sister in-law

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (can use low fat)
• 1/2 pound lump crab meat, broken up (DO NOT use imitation crab meat. The best crab is lump crab from the refrigerated section of your local store. I used the lump crab meat sold by Costco.)
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (can use low fat)
• 2 tablespoons minced green onion
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons horseradish
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375-degrees F.
2. Mix all ingredients well.  Spread in a lightly buttered baking dish and bake for 20 minutes, or until hot and bubbly and lightly golden on top.
3. Remove from oven and sprinkle lightly with a little more red pepper flakes and dried parsley.
4. Serve with crostini, tortilla chips, bread cubes, or vegetable sticks.
