Tips

  • For the creamiest dip, use a high-quality cream cheese. Philadelphia or another brand-name cream cheese is recommended.
  • If you don't have any green onions on hand, you can substitute another type of onion, such as white or yellow onion. Just be sure to chop the onion finely so that it doesn't overpower the other flavors in the dip.
  • To make the dip ahead of time, simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let the dip come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers, such as crackers, chips, or vegetables. For a fun and easy way to serve the dip, try using a bread bowl. Simply hollow out a round loaf of bread and fill it with the dip.

This cheesy shrimp meltaways recipe is the perfect appetizer for any party or gathering. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
