With cayenne pepper and hot sauce (both optional), this delicious dip doubles up on the heat. Chock-full of crabmeat, this appetizer feels special, yet it only takes minutes to prepare. —Carol Forcum, Marion, Illinois

You don't have to heat it in the microwave...it can also be served cold!

Great taste and simple to make, what could be better

This was delicious as our New Year's appetizer served with a variety of crackers.

I personally get frustrated when people have to give their opinions on recipes'  ingredients ,,, if you don't care for the ingredients used please keep it to yourself.  The imitation crab is made from fish and I find it very good in recipes even though I love the real and fresh crab also.

This was a huge hit at my party. I added pickled jalapenos for extra flavor and spice. Definitely best served warm.

I love this dip on crackers.  Very tasty.I have never, ever heard of spelling imitation crap meat with a K.  Where did this come from?  Imitation crab, lobster, etc. are excellent foods:  fat-free, very high protein, and reasonably priced.   Makes a wonderful seafood salad, or when added to a tossed salad.  It is, after all, real seafood.

P.S.~The imitation crab meat was quite tasty. The recipe was just lacking. :)

We made this recipe for the NASCAR race yesterday.Loved it. The imitation Crab we used started w/ a "C" I really like the one that didn't even try the recipe, was more concerned about the" K" in Crab.

Imitation Crab meat adds color to this recipe.  You could use 2 cans crab meat, drained and some Imitation crab meat for eye appeal.

Wasn't bad, I just wouldn't call it "Spicy" and I am a wimp. Added seasoned salt and "Tony's" spicy cajun seasoning...still a little bland. Maybe it will be better cold. Will see tomorrow.
