Shrimp Stuffed Avocado


Ingredients
4-5 firm ripe avocados
1 lb medium sized cooked shrimp
½ medium red onion, diced finely
2 radishes, diced finely
½ red bell pepper, diced finely
2 celery stalks, diced finely
2 hard boiled eggs, diced 
1 small can whole kernel corn, drained
5 tbs cilantro aioli or regular  mayonnaise
Lime juice from 1 lime
Salt/pepper to taste

Optional garnishes: 
chopped lettuce, sliced tomatoes and chopped cilantro



Directions
Chop shrimp in half, if desired keep a few to garnish.

Combine diced onions, radishes, bell pepper, celery, eggs, shrimp, corn, ½ of the lime juice and aioli (or mayo) in a bowl, mix well.

Taste and salt/pepper if necessary.

Cut avocados in half, remove seed and peel carefully.

Drizzle remaining lime juice over avocados, this help keep them from darkening too quickly.

Use a spoon to stuff avocados with shrimp salad filling.

Add any garnishes and serve immediately.

Serve with hot sauce if you want to spice it up, or serve with extra cilantro aioli.
