Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced
  • 1 cup fresh mango, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Notes

  • Store leftovers separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Consume within 1-2 days for optimal freshness.
  • To prevent avocado browning, add fresh slices just before serving or upon reheating.
  • Customize with other proteins like grilled chicken or fish, or substitute fruits like pineapple or papaya.
