How to Make Layered Shrimp Spread
With just 4-ingredients this Cream Cheese Shrimp Dip can be assembled and ready to serve in minutes! Just layer the ingredients on a serving dish and you're ready to go!
You can find the tiny bay shrimps in the seafood/meat department of most grocery stores. If you can't find them you can always just give a rough chop to larger shrimp.
To keep things a little lighter and more WW friendly I always use reduced fat cream cheese, aka neufchatel cheese. Neufchatel is a cream cheese made with skim milk, making it a healthier option.
What to Serve with this Creamy Shrimp Cocktail Dip?
I like to serve our cream cheese shrimp dip with our favorite crackers–we love it with Triscuits or Wheat Thins. The would also go well with these tasty Low Carb Everything But the Bagel Chips. Celery, cucumber slices, or endive leaves also makes a great match if you're watching your carbs and WW Points.
