Not bland at all! Perhaps it's because I added dill weed. Anyway, it was delicious and I'll make it again.

I have made this shrimp cheese dip for years with a few additions. First - I add a tablespoon of horseradish to give it a great kick. I also use more Worcestershire sauce (usually about 1 tablespoon). I chop the shrimp up in a food processor before mixing with the other ingredients. Also, I form it into a round shape before refrigerating. To serve, a put the shrimp on a plate and cover it with seafood sauce. Delicious!

This was just okay and somewhat bland. I prefer the Shrimp Cucumber Spread on this site which is similar with more flavor.

I've made this recipe for years to rave reviews. My husband just asked me to make it for Christmas. I add a little parsley and/or sliced black or green olives.

Did not care for this dip at all! It had no real taste, very bland. I kept added 1 tsp hot sauce, and a spicy salt seasoning to get some taste to it. Won't make it again.
