Shrimp Pizza Appetizer

I’ve mentioned before in some of my previous posts how my Mom is a fantastic hostess.  Growing up they would have card parties, host family gatherings, holiday parties etc.   A popular appetizer on her hosting rotation was this “Shrimp Pizza”.  A delicious layered cracker spread that everyone seems to enjoy and is simple to make.  Cream cheese, homemade cocktail sauce, fresh parmesan cheese, shrimp and fresh parsley complete the layers.  A tasty combination….Yum! shrimp pizza
