Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz imitation crab meat
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 tsp dill weed
- 0.25 tsp garlic powder
- 2 stalks green onions
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese by allowing it to come to room temperature or microwaving it for 10-15 seconds.
Finely chop the imitation crab meat and green onions, ensuring they are small enough to create a smooth and spreadable consistency.
Add the chopped imitation crab meat, green onions, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, dill weed, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the softened cream cheese.
Using a hand mixer or a large spoon, mix all ingredients together until fully combined and smooth.
Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or dill weed to your preference.
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with crackers, baguette slices, or fresh vegetables.
