AMAZING LAYERED SEAFOOD DIP RECIPE



Amazing Layered Seafood Dip Recipe image

Provided by HowDoesShe.com

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 8-oz pkg cream cheese, softened
1/3-1/2 cup sour cream (can substitute with greek yogurt - yummo!)
1/4 cup Miracle Whip (or mayo if that's what you have. I like the extra 'zip' in Miracle Whip)
1/2 small jar seafood (cocktail) sauce (around 1/2 cup). If you aren't sure what this is, it's (essentially) a marriage between ketchup and horseradish. But better.
2 cups diced shrimp or crab meat (can omit if you want - it's all love.)
3-4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 bell pepper, finely diced (I like using yellow or orange for the color)
1 small tomato, finely diced
1-2 cups sliced mozzarella cheese (can substitute with marble or even cheddar)
Chips or crackers (or veggies) for dipping
Opt: could add in black olives, mushrooms, or your other favorite veggies

Steps:

  • Cream the softened cream cheese until smooth. It's best to do this before adding in anything else to avoid lumps. I still sometimes get lumps - I just think of them as little dollops of joy.
  • Add in the sour cream and Miracle Whip and cream until smooth.
  • Spread the cream mixture in a cookie sheet, pizza pan, or even in a large pie plate.
  • Spread the seafood sauce over the cream cheese layer.
  • Evenly sprinkle the chunks of seafood (I love shrimp) over the sauce layer.
  • Layer the veggies over the seafood layer, trying to spread them out as evenly as possible.
  • Sprinkle the cheese over the top.
  • Enjoy!
