Crab Dip

Here's the recipe for some yummy crab dip I made for book club two weeks ago!

Ingredients:

1 8-oz package cream cheese, softened

2 6-oz cans crab meat

1/4 c. diced green onion

1/4 to 1/2 of a mild green chili pepper (Anaheim pepper), minced

1/4 to 1/2 of a jalapeno pepper, minced

1/4 t. salt

1/4 t. white pepper

2 T. shredded parmesan

cayenne Pepper

chopped fresh parsley

1 fresh lemon or lemon juice, if desired.

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to broil. Combine the cream cheese, crab meat, green onion, minced peppers, salt, white pepper, and lemon juice (if desired) in a bowl. Spread the mixture into the bottom of an oven-safe dish. You want to have a thin layer of dip. Sprinkle the parmesan over the top, and broil until the cheese on top begins to brown. Sprinkle the parsley and cayenne pepper over the top.

If desired, you can squeeze a little lemon juice on top as well. Serve with blue tortilla chips.
