Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream, plus

2 1/4 cups grated mozzarella cheese
4 green onions, chopped
1 large firm tomatoes, chopped ( can use two if desired)

Prepare about one 12-inch dish or a glass pie or a fancy quiche plate.
In a bowl, combine/whisk together the softened cream cheese, sour cream garlic (if using) and mayonnaise; spread into bottom of prepared dish.
Scatter the shrimp over the sour cream mixture.
Top with the cocktail sauce (you can use more than 1 cup if desired) then the mozzarella cheese, green peppers, chopped tomatoes, and last the chopped green peppers on the top.
