Kitten here is another outstanding recipe...for all who loves shrimp this easy and scrumptious casserole will surely be a hit! Goes awesome with crusty garlic bread. All the herbs blend nicely and produces a wonderful result! Thanks for posting another winner.

Yum!! I absolutely loved this casserole. I made a couple of minor substitutions to bring down the fat content (egg substitute for eggs, less mozzarella on top) and I used medium salsa instead of mild. It was still great. When I took the casserole out of the oven, I said "No way is this only six servings"...I cut it into eight pieces, but then ate two. Thanks for sharing the recipe, Kitten!

We thought this was just okay--though I did make some changes that may have made the difference (and maybe it was the salsa I picked--it was pretty soupy)? I used bites of chicken instead of the shrimp (sauteed with garlic, a little salt, a little pepper) and added a package of frozen chopped spinach that I defrosted and squeezed. I also forgot the mozzerella and topped it with some additional swiss. While it wasn't terrible, I don't know as though I will make it again. Because of my changes, I'm not using stars.)
