Let's add bacon to the list!

There are a few things in life that no matter what is happening around you will stop and make you smile or at least be thankful.

1.  Democracy
2.  Melted Butter
3.  Puppies wearing glasses
4.  Sunsets (or double rainbows)

And Bacon!

This is a quick recipe for bacon wrapped stuffed shrimp.  Or as Ron Swanson puts it "It's my favorite food wrapped around my fourth favorite food."

My wife suggested this for a party we were having and I was a bit skeptical, mostly because we already had plenty of food.  She assured me it was quick and easy.  Easy, yes.  Quick, NO!

What you'll need:
Shrimp
Feta Cheese
Bacon!!!!
Jalapeno
Toothpicks
A can do attitude.

What you do:
Preheat a grill to low-med.
While the grill is preheating...
*Have ready 20 large shrimp........no, its not an oxymoron.
*Slice the shrimp down the back
*Diced a Jalapeno
*Cut in half about ten or so strips of bacon lengthwise
*Soak toothpicks in water.  This will make sense later.
*Stuff the shrimp with a little jalapeno and feta cheese.
*Wrap the shrimp in the bacon and stick a toothpick in to keep all in place.
*Grill the shrimp, make sure that the bacon fat doesn't start any flare ups. 

This a great party treat, the sweetness of the shrimp, the saltiness of bacon and the heat of the jalapeno will keep the dinner party conversation going.......especially if you have nothing else to talk about. 
**Also, if your guests are not particularly intelligent remind them to remove the toothpicks BEFORE they eat it!

Hope you like it!!!
