shrimp ceviche tonight:

- marinated 1lb of shrimp in lime juice all day
- drain

add:
- 2 avocados chopped
- 1 serrano chile (chopped, seeds removed) (wear gloves)
- 1 plum tomato, seeded, chopped
- 1 cup white onion, chopped
- tbsp or so of cilantro, chopped
- sprinkle of fresh lime juice

Last night I made a guacamole using the above, but substituting a couple of cloves of roasted garlic for the shrimp.
Did the shrimp taste too "limey"? I tried another ceviche recipe calling for scallops and key lime juice and the pucker factor was too high for me. Maybe scallops are more pourous than shrimp or key lime juice is more tart.
