Ceviche Self-Portrait

SUBMITTED BY: big surprise

"If I were ceviche, I would want to be this recipe for its flawless simplicity and popular appeal! Although this recipe says it serves six, two of us polished off the whole bowl, no problem! Goes great topped with a dash of your favorite hot pepper sauce."

I have waited so long to make ceviche and this recipe was perfect. Very easy to make and it was absolutely delicious. I make it at least once a week now.

Excellent! I used 1/2 shrimp & 1/2 crab and added a full bunch of chopped cilantro and a diced avacado, as well as 3 jalapenos instead of serranos. This was fantastic! We ate it with corn chips instead of on tostadas. Yum:)
