Jalapeno Bacon Shrimp Crisps

Need a 20 minute appetizer idea? THIS IS IT. Jalapeno bacon shrimp crisps are SOO easy to make, delicious, and definitely a SHOW STOPPER. They are inspired by my fav jalapeno poppers! I used bacon crisps as my “bacon”, but if you have extra time, airfry some bacon and chop It up and add it to the cream cheese !
