Niki's Famous Crawfish Dip

Recipesfull introduces to you: Mardi Gras Recipes. (Niki's Famous Crawfish Dip). Being from New Orleans, and being a true 'Cajun cook' I create a lot of my own recipes simply by experimenting. This dip recipe came to me when I decided that adding crab boil to almost anything will make it taste incredible. Everyone that tastes it agrees! It's best when prepared a day ahead of time and reheated. Serve with chicken flavored crackers.
