Cook shrimp in the reserved chorizo fat, drain and set aside. (make sure you drain the shrimp and chorizo well after cooking)
Dump your chips on your baking sheet and spread them out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar over the chips.
Put the nachos in oven and bake 10-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and then remove from the oven.
Sprinkle with chorizo, shrimp, ground cumin and salt and pepper.
Bake an additional 10 minutes and remove from oven.

Drizzle as much Magical Hot Sauce over the top of the nachos as you would like and serve. Enjoy!
