“This is a great dip for parties. It goes a long way and is served at room temperature so it does not have to be kept hot or cold. I usually serve it on thin wheat crackers.” - by ROCKSTAR1115

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 (4 ounce) cans shrimp, drained
1 tablespoon chopped onion
3 tablespoons lemon juice
