Crab Artichoke and Spinach Dip

I enjoy artichoke dips and crab dips and spinach dips, so I thought this recipe would be perfect for me. However, I was disappointed. It lacked the tanginess of a typical artichoke dip and the full flavor of a crab dip. I served it at a party, and I could tell it wasn't really a hit. Maybe had I added extra cheese, as one reviewer suggested, it would have increased the flavor factor.

Everyone RAVED about this at my son's birthday party. I had to improvise since I set DH to the store for the ingredients. He bought whole frozen spinach and frozen artichoke hearts instead of canned. Since I had to chopped everything else in the food processor I put the crab in there too and chopped it rather small and the flavor just burst in your mouth. I also put extra cheese in it (we all love cheese) and used the scoop tortilla chips, made it much easier for scooping. Thank you sooooo much!

Made this with real crab and topped with a bit more parmesan cheese. Baked in oven at 325 degrees for 1 hour then broiled for 5 minutes on low to brown top.. Was a huge hit at superbowl party.. Everyone was disappointed when it was gone.. Awesome recipe!!!

I love this. I make one very similiar to this recipe...without all of the cream and half & half (restaurant style). You can add a tsp of 1/2 tsp of Garlic Powder and 1/2 tsp of Onion Powder for extra taste, and cayenne is you want some zip. Another great variation is to bake this for 15-20 minutes and broil it another 3 minutes with some additional cheese sprinkled on top. You get a nice color. Sorry for all the changes. I actually made this exactly the way it was written to see if it stands up this simply...and it does. Kudos to you!
