This hot Crab and Artichoke Dip is sure to be a winner at your next get together! Packed tender crab meat, artichokes and three kinds of cheese this is the ultimate party dip!
Every Sunday night of my childhood we ate junk food. Popcorn, Coke floats, cheese and crackers, you name it, we had it. We would spread our bowls of unhealthy treasures out on the living room floor and bask in the glory of generously buttered popcorn.
I think the reasoning behind this was if you have a large lunch after church you really aren’t hungry enough to eat a full blown meal again for dinner. Or maybe my Mom just didn’t want to cook again, who knows. Whatever the reason, the four of us kids loved it. LOVED it.
What other kid had parents who considered popcorn an acceptable meal? Furthermore, what kid had parents who practically considered popcorn a food group? We had it good.
I recently made this hot crab dip for dinner, to relive those glory days and I know you will love it as much as we do!
