NIKI'S FAMOUS CRAWFISH DIP



Niki's Famous Crawfish Dip image

Being from New Orleans, and being a true 'Cajun cook' I create a lot of my own recipes simply by experimenting. This dip recipe came to me when I decided that adding crab boil to almost anything will make it taste incredible. Everyone that tastes it agrees! It's best when prepared a day ahead of time and reheated. Serve with chicken flavored crackers.

MARK'S CRAWFISH DIP

DH decided he could "outdo" my crawfish dip for a recent get together we had. After combining 3 different recipes, I'll have to say that he came up with a winner that is a MUCH different recipe from the one I've used for years. Serve this dip with assorted crackers, corn chips or large chunks of toasted french bread.
