SPICY CREAM CHEESE AND SHRIMP DIP



Spicy Cream Cheese and Shrimp Dip image

This is a great recipe for parties and family gatherings. You can make it as spicy as you like, by changing the type of salsa you use. The best salsa to use is one that is chunky. I serve my dip with corn chips. I got the idea by attending a party where salsa was simply poured over blocks of cream cheese.
