Cajun Shrimp with Potatoes

By: Angelique Schultz

"'This is a quick-and-easy version of a seafood-stuffed baked potato,' explains Angelique Schultz from her home in Denham Springs, Louisiana. 'Not only does this recipe reduce prep time, it cuts down on cleanup, too. I buy cooked crumbled bacon to speed it along even more.'"
