Ceviche sounds pretty fancy but it is super quick and easy to prepare. Ceviche is a seafood dish popular in Central and South America and the Philippines. It is a mix of a few fresh ingredients such as cucumber, tomato, avocado, bell peppers, cilantro, maybe mint with a white fish, or shrimp marinated in citrus juice such as lemon or lime.
Ceviche is one of my favorites that I ‘frequent’. Its down right delicious and nutritious, refreshing and simple. There are many varieties of ways to make civeche but to kick off our go green column I will make an all encompassing green ceviche for you. Sorry tomatoes you need to sit this one out. Baby shrimp…you are in.

Very attractive web site Andrea & Tawny, and I love the fact that you guys are able to offer ideas for folks like me who have had to make the switch from eating the typical North American diet of eating most anything, to eating gluten free and dairy free; a really tough change to make.
Keep up the good work and much success with your new site.
