Keto Seafood Dip

This Keto Seafood Dip is a great crowd pleasing appetizer! It’s packed full of crab, shrimp, green chiles, and bubbly cheese. For the keto folks this is great served up with low-carb crackers such as flackers, low-carb tortilla chips, or fresh cut vegetables.

One of the tricks I use to cut down on the cost of anything that uses crab is to source it from Trader Joe’s. The frozen lump crab meat is high quality and the cost is a fraction of lump crab meat found at your typical grocery store. Don’t have a Trader Joe’s near you? Some grocery stores sell canned crab meat (look for just crab, water, and salt – no junky preservatives), so be sure to check the isle where the canned tuna and such is sold before heading to the seafood department.

I’ve talked before about how I would hardly touch seafood up until a few years ago, now it’s definitely my favorite. It’s crazy how our tastes change over the years. What’s the one thing you hated but now enjoy? Leave yours in the comments below!
