Serving Suggestions

Note

• This recipe originally contained 3-4 cans of shrimp or crab but when I costed it out, I realised I could use fresh prawns for a lot less money.
• You can add a diced green capsicum to the vegetables scattered over the top if you want even more layers!
• This is a great dip for parties or barbecues and the perfect thing when you have to bring a plate.
• Make sure you have a few packets of corn chips to go with this.
