This recipe has been a family favorite for many years. I know it originated years ago and I think it is time for a Layered Crab Dip revival. My mom always made this as well as her friends, this was their signature go to appetizer. I am sure the fact that it is quick, easy and delicious is the reason they all made this recipe. All I can say, I made it this past weekend, served it with water crackers and it was fantastic. This goes back to the old saying “Mothers are always right” I know mine was with this recipe!
