Easy Shrimp Dip
My biggest tip here is if using frozen shrimp, thaw on paper towels and change the towels a few times once they are soaked. Believe me, it makes a huge difference in the “fresh” taste of frozen shrimp.
In a large bowl, place the peeled and deveined shrimp, cream cheese, mayonnaise, pimento cheese, horseradish, green onion, celery, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning.
Stir gently to combine all the ingredients thoroughly. Chill for at least one hour before serving.
Serve with crackers and enjoy this easy cold shrimp dip!
Thick, creamy, and packed with flavor! This appetizer dip is always a hit at parties, game days and holidays.
