 Give it a try! Don’t forget to try my other great appetizer recipe, like these bacon stuffed mushrooms, Mexican Fiesta Dip, and cheesy crab dip if you’d like another seafood appetizer variation!

One of my favourite appetizer recipes of all time, is Hot Shrimp Dip.

A friend served it once and I was hooked, even though at the time I didn’t care *too much* for Shrimp.

Flash forward many years later and it’s still one of my top go-to appetizer dishes, maybe it even opened the door for my now love for seafood.

Hot Shrimp Dip

I made this appetizer for Christmas Eve, for the past few years now. It’s also the most-requested dip from my family {along with Spinach Dip}, so that says a lot.

Since it’s served warm {We like it best spread onto a cracker, Mmmm!} and it does cool fast, you can place mixture into a small crock-pot if you’d like.

We did this recently and it worked like a charm!

For another great shrimp recipe, you must try these Grilled Shrimp Foil Packs. They can be made on the BBQ, in the oven or even on a campfire!
