I made a hot crab dip to use up the lump crab meat, sour cream, and cream cheese from Thanksgiving. Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, grated onion, Zatarain’s Shrimp & Crab Boil, dash of liquid smoke, and smoked paprika were also used in the Hot Crab Dip. I sliced some of the leftover dinner rolls and toasted them to spread the crab dip on. It was yummy!
We couldn’t eat all the crab dip at once, so we had leftover crab dip. Oh, what to do with the delicious crab dip? I put it in the fridge to use another day.
The next morning, I used it as the stuffing in an omelette for Bruce. He proclaimed it was delicious.
I made a grilled sandwich with it for lunch. The cheese melted and was oozing. It was delicious.
I used it it make quesadillas. Oh my, they were so tasty!
Bruce also put some of the cold dip on crackers. He happily ate it as a snack. He had to tell himself to stop eating it, as he wanted to continue to eat more than he should.
So, if you have a leftover hot crab dip, I hope these ideas give you a starting point for your own kitchen experiments.

You could also stuff it in chicken too.

It is cloudy here with a chance of rain tonight. I am making red beans and rice for supper as that sounded good to me on a cloudy day.

I was really pleased that the dip was so reusable for other meals.

Yes, omelet stuffing! I wouldn’t have thought of that, but it’s a great idea! I might have to make the dip just so I’ll have leftovers to use in other ways…

It has been fun to turn the crab dip into different uses. Eating it as a dip was delicious, then making use of it as an ingredient turned out great. I could see doing the same with hot artichoke dip as well.
