Pecan Shrimp Spread

I use large shrimp and coarsley chop them, I always like to have a bite of shrimp with the creaminess of the cheese. This can be used as either a spread ( for sandwiches, bagels, tortilla wraps etc ) or as a dip ( tortilla chips, crackers, veggies etc ) Cook time is chill time. You can also sub any nut you like or leave out completely but I like the crunch of them. I will also add a kick of Cayenne Pepper when I know my family won't be home ( they dislike spicy spreads )
