Shrimp Cocktail



Ingredients:
2 lbs shrimp (clean, peeled and deveined) 
2 large cucumbers
2 tomatoes 
1 small onion (red or white)
1 bunch cilantro 

Clamato juice (About 16oz) 
3 tbsp ketchup 
2/3 lines
Salt and pepper to taste 
Jalapeño optional 

1 avocado for garnish 
Serve with Corn tostadas 



Boil water in a large pot, bring to a boil add 1tsp old bay seasoning, add cleaned shrimp (tails off) into boiling water. Cook 2 minutes, remove from water and allow to cool completely. Chop all veggies into a small dice and combine in a large bowl. 

The next step is personal preference, you can leave your shrimp whole or chop into thirds. 




Add cooled shrimp into veggie mix, lime juice, ketchup and enough Clamato juice to cover the shrimp & veggies. 



Enjoy immediately or cool until ready to eat. 
This is the perfect summer dish, or appetizer. 
Hope you enjoy my take as there are many ways to 
prepare this Classic dish.




Taste to adjust seasoning and you’re done.
 Enjoy with saltin crackers or tostadas!
