Jalapeno Shrimpers

    5 stars from everyone that tried these. The shrimp and bacon were cooked perfectly and there was just the right amount of spice. The directions seemed lengthy but these were put together fairly quickly! I cooked the bacon between paper towels in the microwave till slightly brown but still soft enough. To broil, I put a toothpick on either side of each shrimp so it would stay upright, hoping the cheese would stay in place better. Thanks Pixie!
