Shrimp Ceviche stuffed Avocados

I made these the other day and I just ate this for lunch. But I feel like it would be amazing as a beautiful starter for a more formal meal, or my favorite way- served with chips and margaritas. (How good does that sound??)

Shrimp Ceviche stuffed Avocados

Basically this whole dish is a desperate attempt for me to close my eyes and pretend I am in Mexico and not sitting in the dark rain. Please Ceviche. Please transport me to a Sunny Beach in Mexico, and don’t forget the Cerveza…..
