Cheese Stuffed Shrimp

This recipe came about because my husband grew tired of grilling stuffed shrimp only to have the filling melt out.  So, another recipe for stuffed shrimp.

Allow to sit at room temp. for 30 min. then stuff the shrimp.  Wrap in bacon and grill for 8-10 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.  Serve hot with a fresh salad.

NOTE:  queso fresco doesn’t melt so it won’t fall out of the shrimp.  Just make sure to over lap the bacon to cover the filling completely.
