This shrimp dip is a layered dip of cream cheese, shrimp cocktail sauce, tomatoes, green onions, cheese, and shrimp. Take it to a cocktail party and serve it with some gourmet crackers or your favorite chips. It's a nice little twist on your typical shrimp cocktail dip.

Why You Will Love this Recipe

This dip would be fun to make for a Holiday party because of the red and green colors. This recipe comes from a cookbook meetup group that I used to be a part of. The owner of the club gave it to me. Have you ever tried meetup.com? It's a great way to find new friends by finding hobbies or similar interests. There was a cookbook meetup group in my area where I found this recipe from. Who knows maybe there's some kind of cool foodie club in the area you live in as well.

Tips for Serving Appetizers 

My family loves to serve appetizers on Christmas Eve. Here are some tips I’ve learned during the Holidays for preparing or serving appetizers in a large family. 

  • Have a variety of appetizers available served warm or cold. 
  • See if there are other ways to prepare the appetizer so you’re not constantly using the oven in your home or someone else’s. Slow Cookers or Air Fryers are great for this reason. 
  • Many appetizers can be made ahead of time. See what ingredients in the recipe can be cooked the day before. 
  • Have plenty of fancy serving platters around to arrange the appetizers on. Dips and fancy spreads look nice on a white serving tray.
