Shrimp Ceviche
Shrimp Ceviche: ceviche is a light and fresh dish originating from South America that includes marinating raw fish in citrus juices, vegetables usually including onions, and herbs.
Ceviche: sah-vee-chay
This is anotha one from Nonnie’s arsenal of tried-and-true EASY recipes. We use frozen, cooked shrimp which makes this not quite a traditional raw fish ceviche. But, we live in Kansas so.. froze is fine by me.

With very minimal work, all you need to do is thaw the shrimp according to the package, then chop them up. Chop the veggies and cilantro, throw all of it together with the shrimp in a big bowl, and pour the Bloody Mary mix on top! That’s it. You can adjust the level of heat my adding more or less jalapeno. My mom likes hers screaming, but she knows we will all be screaming AT HER if she makes things to her heat preference. Start with HALF of one seeded, jalapeno and go from there. One full jalapeno is too much heat for me.
So fresh, simple, clean, and addictive.
