Shrimp Spread

This was originally a filling for cream puffs, but we also use it for finger sandwiches or cracker spread.





List of Ingredients



• 1 large cream cheese, softened
  
• Salt and cayenne to taste
  
• 1/2 pound cooked shrimp, chopped*
  
• 2-4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  
• Lemon juice to taste (@ 1/2 lemon)
  
• 1 teaspoon horseradish
  
• 4 drops Tabasco (opt.)
  
• 1 T. chopped chives or green onions
  






Instructions



1. Mix ingredients together. Chill.
   






Final Comments


*Tuna, salmon, or clams may be substituted. For softer texture, use 8 ounces sour cream and 1 small cream cheese. Canned shrimp may be substituted for fresh.

If using as filling for cream puffs, fill puffs at the last minute to avoid them becoming soggy.
