"Has anyone used this with out cooking it so that it could be brought to a picnic or party with out a stove?"
"Delicious appetizers, but you need to eat them quickly as they get soggy pretty fast."
"Delicious. I substituted 1/2 cup sour cream + 1/4 cup cream cheese for the mayo and sprinkled paprika on them when they came out of oven."
"These nachos are always a hit! I love that they are individual bites. Well worth the little bit of extra time."
"I have been making these for sometime now. They are my favorite of all appetizers. I also use Tostitos. Thank you for this wonderful recipe! It is now Aug.2016, 4 yrs after my first review. I have to tell you all this is still my all time favorite recipe. It's quick, it's good and people love it. It feeds a lot of guests. Make it, you won't regret it."
"I make them with the Tostito scoops, never thought of trying Frito scoops. Regardless, they are a major hit everytime!!!!!! Great appetizer!!!"
"This is one tasty and easy little appie. The only thing I changed was the cheese - half tex-mex and half jalapeno monterey jack. Can't quit eating this little gems!"
"I'm so excited to try this! Finally, something really different and fun to make with cooked shrimp. Yum!"
"I have made this for several parties and my all my friends LOVE it! Several have even requested I bring it the next time too. The picture suggests they used Frito Scoops but I have always used the Tostito Scoops. I will note that these do not reheat well, however we rarely have leftovers!"
"made this for Super Bowl Sunday, as an appetizer we added some black pepper and a kiss of Hungarian Paprika, wow this was gourmet all the way. cant wait till we have another occasion to make them again. 2 spoons up."
