Quick & Easy Shrimp Ceviche




This Ceviche is by far the easiest thing and with a major taste factor, its sure to please for a party or just for a quick lunch! & hello Its HEALTHY!! I made my recipe with cooked shrimp but you can also use raw.

Prep time: 20 minutes
Ready in: 2 hours(with cooked shrimp)
Raw shrimp 4-5 hours preferably over night

Ingredients:
1-2 pounds of shrimp
1chopped sweet onion
1 large chopped cucumber
3 chopped roma tomatos
6 lemons
4 limes
1 chopped raw jalapeno pepper
1 chopped serrano pepper
1sliced avocado (optional)
Salt to taste
Tostada shells


First rinse shrimp under cold water if frozen blanch under luke warm water. Make sure to have a large mixing bowl chop and place shrimp in the bowl throw all other ingredients in bowl followed by lemon and lime juice. Avocado can be cubed and thrown into the mixture or it can be sliced and placed on top while serving. Let mixture marinate for 1-2 hours with the cooked,  If using raw shrimp it will cook in the lemon and lime juice and will need to take more time aprox 4-5 hours.
Serve with tostada shells on top or on the side, extra limes and a nice cold beer (optional) :)
