| Cucumber 🥒 and cream cheese sandwiches. |
That's not dip. |

Block of cream cheese, can of (good) crabmeat, 8oz pepper jack or white cheddar, 1 cup mayo, plenty of Old Bay.

| My mom made chicken lasagna with cream cheese and it was a family fave. |
Op said, "Suggestions for something savory like a dip, or use in a casserole or something?" It's an "or something" is that better??? 🙄 |
| Can be used in some mac and cheese recipes |
| Mash about a third of the block with a can of salmon, a spoonful of mayo, and some chopped chives. Salt and pepper to taste. A few drops of liquid smoke seasoning if desired. Serve with crackers or celery sticks. |
What are the good cans of crabmeat? My neighbor made a hot cream cheese crab dip that was delicious. |
The stuff you get on ice in the fish department, not the shelf-stable stuff with the tuna. Lump is best, but in a hot dip nobody's going to care if you use Special or Claw. |
| Pimento! |
| cream cheese and salsa, microwave for 30 seconds, mix, dip |
In the “or something” (though I know this was a while ago and you’ll have long since used it up) category: Martha Stewart Everyday Food once had a sandwich that featured rye bread, salami, arugula and cream cheese. It’s been a favorite ever since. It may have also included tomatoes but I don’t like them. |

My ILs have a family dip that is just cream cheese mixed with garlic salt. Add milk to thin. Serve with potato chips.
Yeah, we're ... not thin. |
This is good. You can also mix the cream cheese with jarred tomato sauce for a pasta dish. And I second the idea for pimento cheese dip. |
