Avocado-Lime Shrimp Salad (Ensalada de Camarones con Aguacate y Limon)

SUBMITTED BY: La Afro-Cubana 

"This easy shrimp salad contains no lettuce. It's perfect for barbeques or as a 'change of pace' dinner side dish. Customize this recipe with your favorite salad dressing in place of the lime juice. The lime gives it a tiny tangy kick."
