EASY SHRIMP DIP
This is such a great recipe. It is easy and is so good! I get asked to make this for holiday parties. One tip - remember to take it out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before serving or it will break your crackers. You can use 2 cans of shrimp in place of the frozen salad shrimp.

Steps:
- On a 10"-12" serving plate spread cream cheese (I sometimes use a pizza pan) .
- Spread on cocktail sauce (you won't need the whole bottle).
- Place shrimp on top of sauce.
- Put them close together so shrimp covers sauce completely.
- Cover and refrigerate.
- Remove from fridge at least 30 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and high-quality seafood for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the seafood and other ingredients.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the ingredients by hand.
- Be careful not to overmix the dip, or it will become too runny.
- Serve the dip with your favorite crackers, chips, or vegetables.
- If you want a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- For a more tangy dip, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
- If you want a smoother dip, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before serving.
- Garnish the dip with chopped fresh herbs or a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color.
- Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
