DESCRIPTION
The perfect appetizer is a dish that’s both fun and something you can’t resist making or eating: this Crab & Artichoke Bread Bowl Dip is all that and more!

DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F and slice off the top of the Kings’ Hawaiian® Round Hawaiian Sweet Bread. Hollow out the bread bowl, leaving about a 1-inch wall on all sides, to create the bowl. Cut the top of the bread into cubes.
- Place the bread bowl back into its round tin and place the bread cubes onto a large baking sheet. Toast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, salt, black pepper, garlic powder and grated parmesan cheese to a small pot and heat on medium heat stirring frequently until well combined and melted. Next, add the diced bell pepper, chopped green onion, drained and roughly chopped Reese® Artichoke Hearts, drained Reese® Crab Meat, and lemon juice. Mix and allow to heat through, about 5 minutes.
- Spoon the warm crab and artichoke dip mixture into the toasted bread bowl and serve with the toasted bread cubes. Garnish with more thinly sliced green onion and a light sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
