I do not remember where this recipe came from; it is a supreme appetizer and must be shared w/ my friends. It makes for a very elegant presentation on your holiday table. The recipe name is mine as I do not know the original name. Adding shrimp and crab to a classic nacho mixture of melted cheese and jalapenos makes for the perfect special occasion appetizer. It is so good you will want to make it THE dinner!
