Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil.
  2. Add the shrimp and cook them until they turn pink, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  3. Drain the shrimp and quickly chill them under cold water to stop the cooking process.

  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, salt, black pepper, and cumin.
  6. Drizzle the dressing over the shrimp mixture and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
  7. Serve the salad with a side of zesty salsa for dipping or drizzling.

Notes

For a twist, consider using lime juice instead of lemon or adding a dash of chili powder for heat.
