Directions
Put the artichoke hearts, crab, green onions, garlic, and lemon juice into a food processor. Pulse everything a few times until the mixture is chopped into small pieces but not completely smooth. Next, add the cream cheese and blend again until the spread is nice and creamy. Transfer the dip into a glass or ceramic bowl and pop it in the fridge for about an hour to let the flavors meld and it firm up a bit. When you're ready, serve it chilled alongside some crackers or fresh veggies for dipping.
