Instructions
1-Preheat oven to 375°F and place a cookie sheet on the center rack to ensure even baking.

3-Bake the crust on the cookie sheet for 9 to 11 minutes until it’s lightly golden, and let it cool a bit afterward.
4-Beat chive-and-onion cream cheese until smooth, then add eggs one at a time, beating well after each for a creamy mix.
5-Fold in the chopped shrimp and shredded pepper Jack cheese until everything is evenly combined.
6-Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust and spread it out evenly for a uniform bake.
7-Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the filling sets and the top turns lightly browned, then cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
