Ingredients:

1/2 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined, and chopped

1/2 pound lump crab meat

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

Directions:

Cook the Shrimp: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, until pink and fully cooked. Remove from heat and set aside.

Prepare the Dip: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the dip mixture into an oven-safe dish and spread it out evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and golden on top.

Serve: Remove from the oven and let the dip cool slightly. Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or toasted bread for dipping.
