I have a large family, work full time, and coach soccer and football, so I appreciate recipes that are easy to assemble. This rich, creamy dip is a fun appetizer to whip up for any gathering. —Teri Rasey, Cadillac, Michigan

Hot Crab Dip

2% milk

salsa

cream

(8 ounces each) imitation crabmeat, flaked

green onions

(4 ounces) chopped green chiles

Assorted crackers vegetables

In a small bowl, combine milk and salsa. Transfer to a greased 3-qt. slow cooker. Stir in cream cheese, crab, onions and chiles. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Serve with crackers or vegetables.

This dip was pretty good. I used the ingredients exactly as directed. I think if I were to make this again I would take some of the other reviewers suggestion to add some tiny shrimp. Also, I might add a couple dashes of hot sauce or use hot salsa instead of mild. Everyone enjoyed this dip, but my guest said they like my crab artichoke dip better. I like that the dip came together really quick and easy. I baked it at 350 in a deep dish 9x9 foil pan instead of a crockpot which worked really well and it was heated in 30 minutes.

This hot "crab" dip was a smash hit. I was asked to share the recipe which I did. I used fat-free half and half for the milk, Herdez 'hot' salsa, and low fat cream cheese. It's good with crackers, pita chips and Fritos.  We made it the day before the party, cooking it for 3 hours on low in a 3 qt Crock Pot, cooled it a little and then refrigerated it in the removable crock overnight. The next day we simply replaced the crock in the pot and reheated it on low.  To serve I transferred it to a 1 1/2 qt Crock Pot. The remainder was placed in a wide mouth Thermos like container from which I replenished the smaller Crock Pot once. This way guests don't have to dive deep to get at the dip.

I made this for a Thanksgiving Day appetizer for the first time several years ago, and what a hit! Everyone loved it so much that it became a regular addition to Thanksgiving  at my house. I think that if I decided not to make it, nobody would show! Would love it if there were leftovers, bit there never are.

Everyone I've made this for just swoons over how good this is!

I made this recipe, using only one (not two) packages of cream cheese, so that the crabmeat flavor would be more pronounced.  I received many compliments, and will definitely make it again!

I've made this recipe four times now and it is always a big hit!! Even tastes great the next day cold or reheated…so easy, it's my go to recipe when I need something easy to throw together!! Love it!!

I made this and put one can of shrimp in it. I loved it. My husband  loved it.  Would love to make it again and take it to an outing. Good stuff !!!

This has been a favorite or ours for a number of years!  It is so easy to make.  My youngest son asks for it year round!!!

Made it for the Super Bowl. It was extremely easy to make and very delicious, everyone at the party raved about it.

I made this for a work function.  It was a hit.  Everyone loved it.

I made this for a family gathering and it got a lot of compliments.

I loved this recipe.  I added a can of tiny shrimp and it was fabulous!

A friend and myself tried several different crap dip receipes, we found this dip and have never deter from it. Excellent, and requested alot by friends and famly.

Pretty good, though was a little to sweet tasting. Needs a little ump.  Maybe a bit of hot sauce. Will make again, though, with a bit of a touch up.

Loved it!  The little bit of "heat" from the salsa and green chilies makes it so good!After reading the other reviews, I cut back to 2 pkg. of cream cheese & added 2 cans of tiny shrimp.  I used reduced fat cream cheese and it tasted delicious.I liked it just as well, if not better, served cold the next day with some chopped celery to give it some crunch!
