Shrimp Scoops

Submitted by knitaholic

"This came from an insert out of one of the many magazines I get each month. Would be better if not too many of these are prepared ahead of time, as the chips get soggy if left too long. Maybe just do a couple for show, and then have the bowl of shrimp mixture and chips separately. Tostitos scoops work best, to work as a miniature bowl to hold the salsa mixture better."

(Reviewed for PAC Fall 2007) This was very good -- although I guess it's obvious that it depends on how good the salsa is! I made the mistake of using a VERY hot chipotle salsa from Trader Joe's, so the taste of the cilantro, lime juice, etc. got a little lost. We're a WW household, so we didn't use chips for this -- we just turned it into a shrimp salad, and served it over romaine. Very low calorie, virtually non-fat -- what's not to love? I'll make it again, although with a milder, chunkier salsa. Thanks for posting!
