I love creating appetizers. In fact, if my dinner may simply contains appetizers and wine, I’d be entirely happy! That’s why i like this shrimp formula such a lot. It doesn’t get far better than shrimp, bacon and cheese wrapped in phyllo!
This pate feuillete wrapped shrimp course with bacon and cheese is that the good party food for your next get-together!
