Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 large avocados; cut in half
- 1/2 lb fresh cooked bay shrimp or medium cooked shrimp; cut in half
- 2 tsp. olive oil
- 1/4 cup cucumber; diced
- 3 Tbsp. salsa
- 1/4 cup red onion; diced
- 1/2 juiced lemon
- 3 Tbsp. green onions; thinly sliced
- 1/4 tsp. salt for taste
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper for taste
- hot sauce; optional
- diced jalapenos; optional
Instructions
- With a sharp knife slice the avocados in half (long-ways) and remove the pits. Spoon out some of the avocado flesh near the pit indent so the avocado can hold more shrimp mixture. You can also leave the avocados as they are and pile them higher with the shrimp mixture.
- In a medium size bowl add shrimp, olive oil, cucumber, salsa, red onion, lemon juice, green onions, salt and pepper. Mix together until combined. Spoon shrimp mixture onto each avocado and enjoy! Serve as is or with crusty sourdough bread or tortilla chips!
