Worthy of a Special Occasion

We've added nutrition powerhouse tofu to this popular combination of crabmeat and artichoke hearts. You can combine the ingredients for this ideal dip a day ahead of baking; just keep it covered and in the fridge during that time.

Yield: 16 servings (serving size: 1/4 cup dip and 3 chips)

Ingredients

  • 1/2  cup  finely chopped soft tofu (about 4 ounces)
  • 6  tablespoons  (1 1/2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1  tablespoon  Dijon mustard
  • 1  teaspoon  dried oregano
  • 1/4  teaspoon  black pepper
  • 1  (16-ounce) carton reduced-fat sour cream
  • 3/4  cup  (6 ounces) lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
  • 1  (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 2  tablespoons  dry breadcrumbs
  • 1/2  teaspoon  paprika
  • Cumin-Dusted Pita Chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°.

Combine the tofu, 1/4 cup cheese, mustard, oregano, pepper, and sour cream in a large bowl. Gently fold in crabmeat and artichokes. Spoon crabmeat mixture into a 1-quart baking dish, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese, breadcrumbs, and paprika. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until browned. Serve with Cumin-Dusted Pita Chips.
