Sharie's Spicy Shrimp Cocktail

This recipe will warm you up on a cold winter night.  
Keith likes the spicier version that has Sharie playing a game of 'Find the Shrimp'

Mix together (mingle/network):
1/4 C catsup
1/4 C lime juice
1-2 tsp. hot pepper sauce

Add:
1 pound jumbo shrimp; peeled, cleaned and de-veined (you're so de-veined, you probably think this recipe is about you)
1/2 C chopped plum tomato
1/4 C chopped red onion
1/4 C fresh snipped cilantro

Refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Add 2 peeled, chopped avocados.
Garnish with a wedge of lime.
Serve chilled.


Suggested music: Try some low country blues from Shrimp City Slim and his band, possibly from their CD "Ancestor Worship: The Boston Sessions 1980-83"
