For an appy, I made Seafood Surprise Spread. I got the recipe from an ole College Colleague probably about 20 years ago....yikes, I am getting old!
I don't make it often, but it IS a hit each time I make it....hope you enjoy the recipe....
Ingredients.....
1st Layer -
8 oz softened cream cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried dill
Mix all these together well and spread it right onto the dish. A 9 inch fluted quiche pan would work well, but I don't have one, so I improvised.
2nd layer -
8 oz fresh or canned shrimp (frozen is ok in a pinch, but be sure to drain it really well)(I messed up and bought only one can shrimp instead of 2, so I used 1 can shrimp and 1 can crab meat)
3rd layer -
1 cup seafood cocktail sauce (for some reason I have DON'T use Kraft written down, who knows why?) (But, we made our own sauce using horseradish and ketchup)4th layer - 2 cups Havarti cheese, grated (grates easier if you freeze it a bit first)
5th layer - 1 green pepper, 1 tomato, green onions (all chopped together)
Cover well and chill for several hours (overnight is good). Serve with crackers (Bretons or other wholewheat crackers are wonderful with it!)

Yum! That sounds good!
Yum! I lov surprise spread. We also make a variation of it for when we have people over that have seafood allergies. Pizza Surprise Spread! Same idea but with pizza/spaghetti sauce, and pepperoni instead of shrimp and crap. A little different but still tasty.
It's delicious, Krissy you should try it. It makes quite a bit....Aly the pizza surprise sounds really good too! Thanks!
