Looking for a Great Hot Crab Dip Recipe

In summary, the ingredients needed for a hot crab dip include lump crab meat, cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded cheese, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings. Canned crab meat can be used, but fresh or frozen crab meat is recommended for better flavor and texture. The dip is best served warm or hot with crackers, bread, or vegetables. It can be made ahead of time and refrigerated, then baked when ready to serve. A shredded cheese blend with cheddar and Monterey Jack is the best type of cheese to use for the dip.

Like REALLY good? Since I have "good" crabmeat, not canned I want it to be worth it. Know what I mean?
 
The Crab Rangoon dip is tasty, but I usually make it with "crab with a K," the fake stuff. There's garlic and sweet and sour sauce on it, so the delicate flavor of real crab would be lost.

Made my own concoction:

About 1 cup crabmeat
8 oz cream cheese
3 TBSP mayo
1 TBSP swiss cheese
about 3 TBSP diced onion
1 garlic clove minced
2 small stalks celery diced
1 TBSP worchestershire
2 TBSP Red Hot
Dash of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, parsley, thyme & adobo

I think that's it.
My plan is to bake it in the small oval baker for about 25 minutes and serve it on toasted french bread.
i'll let you know how it comes out!
 
I'd like to taste test that for you just to make certain it's really good enough for your family okay???? :) Please???
