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.

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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
