Hot Shrimp Dip Recipe

I was looking for a shrimp dip to take to a party yesterday - but didn't want to have to go buy any ingredients.

Here is what I put together:
1 bag of frozen shrimp, defrosted, tails removed, chopped up
1 green pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
some minced garlic
some old bay

Toss all of that in a pan on the stove to soften the pepper/onion

1 cup of softened cream cheese
1/2 cup of sour cream
a bunch more old bay

Mix together in large bowl

Once the mix on the stove looks softened, use a slatted spoon to move it into the bowl with the cream cheese mixture (I tried to leave out as much of the "water" as possible).

Toss in a handful of grated cheese (I used cheddar, mont/jack would have been good as well).

Mix.

Place into pie dish or 8X8 baking dish. Sprinkle top with more cheese and old bay on top of that.

Place in 350 oven for 30 minutes.

I served with Sea Salt Bagel Chips --> Tostitos worked too!
