Awesome Garlic Shrimp in a Creamy Cheese Sauce image

This is a great tasting dish that you can have on the table in under an hour. I worked on this for a bit until I got the proportions correct. I think that the bacon, and the cream cheese just send it over the top. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

I'm not a fan of shrimp, but I loved this dish! The sauce was so creamy and cheesy, and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. I served it over rice, and it was a great meal. I'll definitely be making this again!

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The shrimp were cooked well and the sauce was flavorful. I would recommend using less cheese next time.
