Notes
This Maryland Crab Dip mixes up effortlessly and can be made ahead of time. Refrigerate and bake when ready. It also reheats great as well.
I often bake this in various smaller dishes instead of an 8x8 dish - do what works for you!
Also try this dip as Crabby Fries - served on top of french fries and smothered in seafood seasoning.
