Hot Crab Dip

This is my favorite crab dip. We usually just dump everything in the crock pot and cook and serve. It is really good. Of course being from Maryland, I do add Old Bay. We serve with crackers and Fritos.

Hot Crab Dip

3/4 cup nonfat sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated fresh onion
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
(I also add 1 tsp of Old Bay)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (8-ounce) tub reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
1 pound lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
Vegetable cooking spray
Paprika

Combine the first 7 ingredients in a bowl; stir well with a wire whisk. Stir in cheddar cheese and crabmeat.
Spoon the crabmeat mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole coated with cooking spray, and sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 325° for 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve warm with plain crackers.
