This Shrimp Ceviche recipe is a shortcut recipe that makes a great side dish or party appetizer.

I loooove me some Shrimp Ceviche. In college, the best treat was when I would come home and my dad would take me to Costco.
I’d load up on frozen meat for the semester so all I had to buy was vegetables. I always bought the same things and still do: frozen salmon, turkey burgers, chicken breasts and shrimp!

There’s nothing I love more in the summer time than a cold but hearty salad, so I’ve been dying to try a Shrimp Ceviche recipe.
This recipe requires a fair amount of chopping, but other than that it’s super easy!

You can make the first portion of the recipe and refrigerate it ahead of time for entertaining, so the preparation is super quick when it’s time to serve.
This recipe is a simple combination of fresh vegetables, citrus juice, cilantro, shrimp and avocado.
I know, I know …it’s not the authentic way of making ceviche, it’s really more of a shrimp salad. All I know is … it’s delicious!

I love eating shrimp because it has a very high protein content relative to low calories.
Although this recipe is best served right away, I assembled it in the morning to take to work for lunch and it help up great.

If you’re in need of a pretty, healthy, and easy appetizer recipe or lunch, give this Shrimp Ceviche a try!
