Shrimp Nachos Recipe

shrimp_nachos_1
It’s not too late for another great Super Bowl party recipe, this time it’s Shrimp Nachos. These nachos will make the perfect appetizer for any party or event. What they basically are in a shrimp and mayo mixture inside of tortillas scoops. The nachos’ get most of their flavor from cumin and use a few vegetables such as olives, green onions, and green chilies. The best part about this recipe is its super easy. You will have these in the oven within minutes. For the cheese, I used a Mexican 4 cheese blend but you can use cheddar as well. Enjoy.

I wonder if the crispy/crunchy texture of the nachos would actually go well with the shrimp. Interesting indeed!

I made these for the super bowl. They are very good. I think next time I may add a little heat to them for a little kick. Thanks.
