Chesapeake Bay Crab Dip – Baked, Cheesy and Delicious!

crab dip

Most people would consider crab dip an appetizer, but I could honestly sit down with a dish of the stuff and a sleeve of buttery crackers and call it a meal. Growing up on the east coast of Virginia made me many things, and one of those is a seafood lover through and through.
