This full bodied dip almost makes a meal in itself. If you're entertaining a large crowd, be sure to double or triple the recipe. Don't be afraid to add a cup of precooked salad shrimp, or feel free to substitute your favorite seafood in place of the crab. Lightly sauteed scallops go well in this recipe as well. To keep this treat low carb serve with vegetables instead of toast or crackers.
