Was a hit for New Year’s Eve party. I sprinkled some cumin over for some extra flavor. I chopped the avocado one at a time into a large measuring cup and squeezed the lime juice directly onto it and tossed gently before adding to salad. Avocado didn’t turn brown!

Eating this as I type! Yum! It’s been so hot this week, that something light and cool for lunch sounded great. I used frozen salad shrimp and instead of olives, I added a clove of minced garlic.

I made this for the Super Bowl this year, and it went over well. I would probably make it again. I agree with the first reviewer- using frozen cooked shrimp might not have had the most flavor. And to get tomatoes at the store in February, well… not an advantage there, either. However, I thought the flavor was bright and crisp, and I enjoyed it. I think starting with juice of one lime might do the trick- otherwise it seemed to get too watery. I’ve been enjoying leftovers all week- this yields a bunch.

Eating this right now. Its really yummy. It has a great fresh flavor and we can taste each ingredient! Went light on the jalapano, well, just enough for me I should say.

I made this yesterday as a sample for Super Bowl fare. Tried by 3 and all said it was just s0-so. They would eat it if it were made, but would not request it again.
For ease, I used frozen/cooked shrimp from the store and I think they had zero seafood flavor.
I keep 20-30 pounds of fresh Gulf shrimp in the freezer so I’m going to try again next time we have a shrimp boil and see if well seasoned shrimp make a difference.
Anxious to see other reviews….Thanks for the recipe PW.

I made this today and all the ingredients were okay, but it like something was missing. I added Texas Pete to it and it helped some, but I love spice, so I think I will also add some cumin and some fire roasted tomatoes for a kick next time. Yes, I will make this again.

I made enough changes to this that I didn’t think it was fair to give a rating, but I did want to leave a comment. I was in charge of the appetizers/dips for our Super Bowl party tonight, and we’re doing a Mexican theme (as I’m sure many are across the US today). I made Guacamole, Ceviche, and this. Since I used avocado already in the guac, I didn’t want to put it in this. After I made it as written, but without the avocado, I went back and added about 4 more limes (they weren’t very juicy at all) and a half a lemon. It was still missing something, so I added the rest of the can of olives, a can of black beans, and some cumin. I’m sure this is a dish that will just get better as it sits, too. It’s definitely tasty right now, even though I only made it an few hours ago.
