Ship Island Shrimp Dip

I made this recipe for our recent housewarming party, and it was a hit! We were going for kind of a “seaside” theme, and this shrimp dip was a great choice.

The recipe came from user prissycat at allrecipes.com. The only change I made was adding a few drops of red food coloring at the end to give it more of a pinkish color. (Oh, and we made a quadruple recipe… ha ha!)

8 oz cream cheese
8 oz sour cream
1 lemon, juiced (or 2 Tbsp lemon juice)
1/2 0.7-oz pkg dry Italian salad dressing mix
4.5 oz can shrimp, rinsed and drained

In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and sour cream and blend with an electric mixer on medium speed. Add lemon juice and dressing mix; mix well. Add in shrimp and mix. Chill dip overnight and serve.
