This was made for a large party and got rave reviews on taste & presentation. It could also be made with shrimp. Although I have not tried it this way, I believe the crab dip could be placed in cooked bread bowl, bread top placed on top,and all covered with foil and baked until hot.

I had lunch with a friend and this was an appetizer we ordered. Now I don't know what they used, however I recreated what I tasted. I made it for our very small super bowl meal, and even my teenage daughter who won't eat crab loved it, she didn't know it was crab :-)
