Crab Rangoon Dip

Crab Rangoon Dip is the dip version of those delicious Crab Rangoons you get at Chinese takeout restaurants. Instead of a cream cheese and crab filling inside a fried wonton, you have a warm creamy, cheesy dip served with crispy wonton chips. So much easier to make than Crab Rangoons and you can really load that creamy, cheesy goodness on your wonton chips.

Creamy and warm crab dips are always hard for me to resist and this one is no exception. I really have to practice restraint to not overeat it.

This dip is super easy to make. Just mix together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream with the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and green onion. For flavoring, a little lemon juice, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Then fold in some crab. Canned crab works fine for this recipe.

Bake until hot and bubbly and watch it disappear!
