I bought a similar spread at the grocery store a while back, and I thought that I could do it better and cheaper myself. You can use imitation crab, instead of the real thing if you like. I use cooked and frozen artichoke hearts or you can buy fresh artichokes, and cook the hearts up yourself. Ingredients:
3 frozen cooked artichoke hearts, thawed and quartered |
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened |
4 ounces crabmeat |
3 green onions |
1 clove garlic |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Place artichoke hearts, crab, green onions, garlic, and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse until chopped fairly small. Add cream cheese and puree until smooth.
2. Pour dip into a non-metallic bowl, and chill for 1 hour.
3. Serve with crackers or vegetables.
