FIESTA SHRIMP AND AVOCADO SALSA
Love this!!! Another of my attempts to make a restaurant dish. We have a 21 month old and we make it a point now not to be seen in public! Just use the serrano pepper seeds to adjust the heat to your liking.

SHRIMP AND AVOCADO SALSA
This was posted in the Houston Chronicle. It's similar to a dish served at Goode Co. Seafood restaurant. A refreshing summer treat. You can serve it with tortilla chips as an appetizer, or as a topping for grilled seafood or veggie dishes.

- Combine shrimp, avocados, tomatoes, cilantro, green onions, jalapeños and lime juice in a bowl and mix gently.
- Stir in seafood sauce, ketchup and salt.
- Chill, covered, until serving time.
- Garnish with a whole jalapeño.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe avocados. If your avocados are not ripe, you can speed up the ripening process by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or banana.
- To make the salsa ahead of time, simply combine all of the ingredients except the shrimp and avocado. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, stir in the shrimp and avocado.
- If you don't have any cooked shrimp, you can use frozen shrimp. Simply thaw the shrimp according to the package directions before using.
- This recipe is easily doubled or tripled to feed a crowd. Just be sure to use a large enough bowl to mix everything together.
- Serve the fiesta shrimp and avocado salsa with tortilla chips, crackers, or your favorite vegetables.
