Mexican Shrimp Salad

Yield: 2 entrées or 4-6 appetizers


This recipe is the culmination of several experiments one summer — that was one good-eatin’ summer! I’ve also served this as a dip with tortilla chips, just be sure to dice the shrimp to make for easier dipping. (July 2008)



1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup lime juice
1-2 tsp Tabasco
1 lb fresh shrimp
1/2 cup tomato, diced
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 avocados, diced
Lime wedges for garnish 



Combine the all but the avocados and lime wedges. Marinate and chill for 2-4 hours. 

Just before serving add avocados.
