How to Make New Orleans Crab Spread
- Place 8 ounces of cream cheese in a medium microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 30 seconds, or until softened. Stir until smooth.
- Add 1/2 cup mayonnaise and whisk until completely smooth and creamy.
- Finely chop 1 cup of lump crabmeat, 1/2 cup celery, and 1/2 cup green bell pepper. Add to the bowl.
- Stir in 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. (Refrigerating overnight is even better!)
- Serve chilled with your favorite crackers, toasted baguette slices, or bagel chips. Enjoy!
