Tasty Crabmeat Dip Recipe

Here is a delicious crabmeat recipe that can be used on crackers, toasted bagel halves, or in wraps.  I created this when trying to use some of the ingredients hanging out in my fridge before the New Year and my-oh-my has it been a real hit in the home!  The Italian blend seasoning and banana peppers were just hanging out in the house, but really tied it all together nicely.

The Honest Dietitian's Tasty Crabmeat Dip

Ingredients:

• 1 pound of lump crabmeat (or imitation if you are looking for a good way to use it up!)
• 1 stalk of celery, chopped finely
• 5 banana pepper rings, chopped (this really gave my recipe the pop I was looking for)
• 1 teaspoon of Italian blend seasoning
• 1/3 to 1/2 cup of mayonnaise (I was using up the last of my Duke's mayo so the 1/3 cup worked great)
• 1 teaspoon of honey mustard (if I had dijon, I would have considered this)
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

• Mix the mayonnaise and honey mustard together.
• Toss the crabmeat, celery, and banana peppers in the mayo/honey mustard mixture.
• Sprinkle in the Italian blend seasoning and give the crabmeat mix a couple of stirs.
• Salt and Pepper can be used to your taste!  I gave a quick shake of both to my dip.

Most Importantly...Enjoy!
