This sounds like a great hot night appetizer.... for me it would just be a meal with salad. I love the addition of avocados.


Pudgy, this sounds amazing. Gotta try it!


That sounds fantastic! A meal in itself.. yumm


This is great... it has 3 of my most favorite things in it.... Lime, avocados, and cilantro...


Jerry... this is a good one.. Did you see the one I posted? .. I don't like them the old way anymore. Good post.. can't have enough shrimp!


I didn't see your post on the shrimp.


Jerry,this sounds awesome ! I LOVE all of the ingredients & hubby doesn't like lime so I could have it all to myself !


I'm so excited you have this!!! I've been looking for a recipe to duplicate a dish that I order at my favorite little Mexican Restaurant in my hometown! How do you think a little Clamato would be in it? Too thin?


I actually just made this (like i literally just took a bite) it's reallllly yummy!

i actually used 2 tbsp tapatio hot sauce by accident, and yeah it's REALLY hot, so i just made double the other ingredients so now its just spicy... but its still good, I added some horseradish sauce too


Oh yeah and it's pretty great for weight watchers, the points are really low
