This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I always have shrimp in my freezer, so this is a great way to use them up.

I tried this recipe and it was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less salt.

The shrimp rockefeller was easy to make and turned out delicious. The only thing I would change is to add a little more garlic.
