Shrimp & Cheese Bread image

Run, don't walk... get to the grocery store now and don't waste another minute to try this recipe. Use shrimp or crawfish, whichever you prefer; we like it best with shrimp. WARNING - If you can't take the heat, cut back on the peppers! Loaf is easier sliced using an electric knife. And a quick P.S. about the garlic pepper... This was the first (and only) recipe I have ever come across that calls for it. Simply put, it's "the bomb"! Buy it for this recipe, but do yourself a favor and try it in others!!
