Shrimp Ceviche With Avocado image

My son-in-law makes this wonderful ceviche for us every Christmas and New Years, and for the 4th of July too! Everyone loves it! Serve the ceviche well-chilled in small plastic cups or chilled cocktail glasses (I suggest placing the bowl of ceviche within a larger bowl full of ice to keep it icy cold), along with tostadas chips or tortilla scoops and some chili sauce on the side. Very delicious and refreshing! Note: amounts are approximate-- feel free to adjust measurements to suit your own tastes. Cook time is chill time.

This recipe was a disaster! The shrimp was overcooked and the ceviche was way too sour. I had to throw it all away.

This ceviche is the best I've ever had! The shrimp is cooked perfectly and the flavors are incredible. I love the combination of lime juice, cilantro, and red onion. This is a must-try recipe!

I thought this ceviche was just okay. The shrimp was a bit overcooked and the flavors were a bit bland. I think I would have liked it better with a little more lime juice and some chopped cilantro.

This ceviche was amazing! The shrimp was so tender and the flavors were so bright and fresh. I loved the addition of the avocado and the red onion. This is definitely a recipe that I will be making again and again.

I'm not a huge fan of ceviche, but this recipe was pretty good. The shrimp was cooked well and the flavors were balanced. I would definitely make it again if I was in the mood for ceviche.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The shrimp is always cooked perfectly and the flavors are amazing. I love the combination of shrimp, avocado, and lime juice.

This ceviche was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with a little less lime juice.

This ceviche is so refreshing and flavorful. The shrimp is cooked perfectly and the avocado adds a nice creaminess. I love the pop of color from the red onion and cilantro.

This shrimp ceviche recipe was a hit at my last party! The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the avocado added a creamy richness that balanced out the acidity of the lime juice. I'll definitely be making this again.
