Sure - it was so tasty and good for us sleevers (given a person can manage everything in it).

If you take that an add a 50/50 mixture of clam juice & spicy hot V8 you have a quick & easy Mexican shrimp cocktail. I love the stuff.

Sure, please do share your recipe.

On how much of each ingredient is pretty much up to u so I don't have an exact for each.

Orange roughy (fish)

Crab meat

Shrimp

Avocados

Cucumbers

Red onion

Cilantro

Limes(some ppl use less lime juice)

Olive oil(optional)

I cut the Orange roughy and crab meat into small pieces and place in a bowl. I add lime juice of about 15-20 limes to fish and crab meat. Cover and set in fridge for about 2-3 hrs. Stir every once in a while.

Then I boil shrimp with a little salt.

I cut cucumbers, onion, and avocados into small pieces. Then add it all together to fish and crab meat. Then add salt and cilantro ti taste. Olive oil 1-2tbsp just depends if u want to add. Then cover the bowl and set in fridge for at least 1-2hrs. Mix it around a couple of times. The longer it all sits mixed the better it tastes! I luv to make it and serve it next day but that's us!

Fiddleman, just curious--are poblano peppers pretty hot? I might have to reduce or eliminate them if they're hotter than say, wasabi paste that you get with sushi. I looooooove avocado and shrimp. The whole recipe sounds mouthwatering, thank you for sharing!

Poblano peppers are just a tad hotter than bell peppers. You will notice a little bit more of a kick, but again, not much. It would be nowhere near what wasabi does. The nice part of this recipe, in addition t it being really refreshing, is that it is super high in Protein per serving.

Yum:). Thanks for the recipes!
