Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce
- 8 oz Crab meat
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 0.25 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- optional Crackers, chips, or bread for serving
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, soften the cream cheese by microwaving it for about 20 seconds. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Add the Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the softened cream cheese. Stir until well combined.
Gently fold in the crab meat to avoid breaking it apart too much. Ensure the crab is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Select an oven-safe baking dish (approximately 9-inch round or similar). Transfer the crab mixture into the dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and shredded Mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, chips, or slices of warm bread for dipping.
