Skillet Crab Dip

This recipe is provided by VIP Outdoors

This is a warm skillet crab dip which is a great recipe to snack on around the campfire or introduction to a seafood feast. This dip is both the ultimate comfort food and party dip.

There is a definite Mexican influence with the use of two peppers, Mexican cheese, and queso fresco. Yet the dip is still mild enough to complement rather than overpower the delicate crab.

No specific serving suggestion is designated to use with the dip so feel creative using corn chips, crackers, bread, or vegetables. Making a sandwich out of it with some fresh bread would be a tasty option too.
