Hot Crab And Cheese Dip

• 16 ounces crabmeat (claw)
• 8 ounces cream cheese (room temp)
• 1 cup cheese (shredded, I like a sharp cheese but use what you like)
• 1/4 teaspoon bottled hot pepper sauce (you want some heat but not to take over the flavor)
• 1/2 cup shrimp (chopped raw peeled and devined)
• 1 tablespoon garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (1 tsp dry)
• salt and pepper

1. Mix all ingredients in no special order - except to make sure you whip the cream cheese slightly.
2. Pour into a well greased oven safe bowl and bake for 30 mins or until the cheese bubbles up.
3. Serve with crustinies* or warm bread.
4. *Crustinies are simple slices of your favorite Italian bread (1/4" or less cut on an angle) rubbed with a raw clove of garlic (cut the clove in half and simply rub over each slice of bread) a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of parmesan on each slice. Bake at 325u0b0F till golden brown.
