From an old appetizer cookbook that is so well-used that it lost its binding (and cover, hence I don’t know the title of the book) long ago. I’m left with a collection of loose pages.

Recipe Notes

Serve warm with crackers and vegetables.

When I double the recipe, I use 1 can of crab meat and 1 can of chopped clams. My mom loves this and makes it often. Just recently she was horrified to learn that whenever she's had it at my house, it has chopped clams in it.
