"Unfortunately I have no way to edit the recipe (even though I submitted it). I realize this recipe may not be all that "spectacular" to some people -but the beauty of the recipe, is simply that it ca..." See moren be changed easily to suit a person's taste...want it spicy -add some Emeril's bayou blast or cayenne pepper, want more seafood -add some scallops, want a different type of cheese -use cojack, colby, swiss etc., For those who seem to have trouble finding cream of shrimp soup - I have always been able to find it at Albertson's grocery store - I also know the soup can be ordered online, or perhaps ask your grocer if it can be ordered."

I can't imagine pairing this w/cheddar cheese, so I topped w/shaved aged asiago. I used fresh mushrooms and cream of portabello mushroom."
