Artichoke and Crab Spread

Description

I bought a similar spread at the grocery store a while back, and I thought that I could do it better and cheaper myself. You can use imitation crab, instead of the real thing if you like. I use cooked and frozen artichoke hearts or you can buy fresh artichokes, and cook the hearts up yourself.

Ingredients

  • 3 frozen cooked artichoke hearts, thawed and quartered
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 4 ounces crabmeat
  • 3 green onions
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Place artichoke hearts
  2. crab
  3. green onions
  4. garlic
  5. and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse until chopped fairly small. Add cream cheese and puree until smooth.
  6. Pour dip into a non-metallic bowl
  7. and chill for 1 hour.
  8. Serve with crackers or vegetables.
