Dee’s Shrimp Dip

Dee Fink’s delicious recipe. See also her variation for Shrimp and Macaroni Salad.

Ingredients

• 1 – 1½ lbs. shrimp, cleaned and chopped
• 8 oz. cream cheese, softened at room temp
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• ½ – 1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
• 2 tsp. horseradish
• 1 Tbsp. Hunts chile sauce (or you can use 2 Tbsp. pre-made cocktail sauce and omit the horseradish sauce)
• ¼ tsp. celery salt
• Tabasco – a couple of good shakes

Instructions

Mix the cream cheese, spices and sauces very well before adding the mayo. If you use ⅓-less-fat cream cheese, use a little more of it and less mayo because it won’t firm up much at all even after refrigerating.

Add chopped shrimp and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.

Serve with your favorite wheat cracker. Triscuits are great and it’s GREAT with waffle potato chips too. (You don’t want a cracker with too much flavor of its own or it detracts from the taste of the shrimp.)
