CRAB /SHRIMP DIP OR MOLD
This is a recipe that my sister, Garnet has made for years. It is really good and tasty and can be easily changed from a spoonable dip to a molded salad. Cooking time is chilling time. I decided to add a note here to encourage others to try this wonderful recipe. I recently hosted a wedding shower for my future DIL. I added 2 envelopes of Knox gelatin dissolved in about 1/4 cup of water so that the consistency would be good on Crescent Rolls for sandwiches. It was the hit of the party. Everyone loved it.

CREAM CHEESE SHRIMP COCKTAIL DIP
Found this in Kraft Foods Magazine and sounds easy great for when companies coming. Once I pick up all the ingredients I plan on making it as a dip that's just a little different. Also suggested a substitute of 1 8oz package of chopped crabmeat for the shrimp. Will serve with crackers. Edited to change amount of shrimp to 3/4 pound based on flowers post. Thanks flower for the information.

HOT CREOLE SHRIMP DIP
I came across a recipe for hot crawfish dip, and it sounded delicious, but we don't have a lot of crawfish available in my area. However, I'm a big fan of shrimp, so I used that instead. This Creole shrimp dip has become a family favorite. You can increase the heat with your favorite hot sauce or add a bit of acidity with a squeeze of lemon. -Jill Burwell, Renton, Washington

CROCK POT SHRIMP AND ARTICHOKE DIP OR CRAB AND ARTICHOKE DIP
This is so perfect for entertaining or to serve on Game Day. This dip stays soft and warm the whole time, doesn't get cold and solidified like many other artichoke dips I have made. You can make either the shrimp version or the crab version, or even substitute clams if you prefer. Also, I have added a small can of drained water chestnuts on occasion. ** Also, I use my small slow cooker for this recipe and just leave it on all day - think it's a 2 quart cooker ** One more note - one of my girlfriends loved this so much that she made the recipe as is and served it over linguini for Sunday Pasta.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Shrimp: Use fresh, large shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Cook the Shrimp Properly: Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery. Cook them just until they turn pink and opaque.
- Use High-Quality Ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your shrimp dip will taste. Use fresh herbs, spices, and cheese.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the shrimp, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Chill the Dip Before Serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the dip to thicken up.
