Crabby Cajun Dip (A Light and Easy Crab Dip) image

From Cooking Light. This isn't the best crab dip ever (the ones with a cup of mayo and a cup of cheese get that award), but it is pretty darn tasty and reasonably healthy to boot. It is also easy to throw together.

Time 20m

Yield 3 3/4 cups, 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups nonfat plain yogurt
1/4 cup low-fat cream cheese (AKA light cream cheese or neufchatel cheese)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons anchovy paste
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4-1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1 lb lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
1/4 cup minced green bell pepper
1/4 cup minced green onion

Steps:

  • Make "yoghurt cheese" by spreading yogurt onto several layers of paper towels to 1/2-inch thickness. Cover with more paper towels. Let stand and replace paper towels once they are saturated.
  • Meanwhile combine cream cheese and next 8 ingredients (cream cheese through hot sauce), stirring well with a whisk.
  • With a spatula, scrape yogurt off paper towels into the bowl with the cream cheese mixture.
  • Add all remaining ingredients and stir gently to combine.
