  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1/2 cup cooked small shrimp
  • 1/2 cup frozen petite peas, thawed
  • 1/4 cup black olives, chopped
  • 1/4 cup diced sweet onion

  • 1 dash garlic powder
  • 1 dash onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

  2. In the bowl with avocado, gently mix the shrimp, peas, olives, onion, and celery. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Fold in enough mayonnaise to evenly moisten all ingredients. Spoon the mixture into the reserved peels, and serve within 1 hour.

I wasn't a fan of this recipe at all. There were too many things going, too many flavors or something. I won't make it again, but if you're going to try it, maybe use less onion. It was a pretty side dish though!
