Lime Shrimp and Avocado Salad

So we managed to completely miss the month of July!  I guess everyone was just as busy as I was.  I am finally done traveling for the summer, and it is time to start cooking again everyone!!  Greg and I just got back from a trip out east to meet his sister's triplets, and we definitely overate.  Because of that, we decided to make a nice light salad for dinner after the long drive. 









Lime Shrimp and Avocado Salad
1lb jumbo cooked shrimp, shelled and deveined, chopped
1 medium tomato, diced (we used 2)
1 avocado, diced (we used 1.5, but i'd recommend 2 if you like avocado)
1 jalapeño, seeded and diced fine
1/4 C chopped red onion
2 limes, juice of
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
salt and pepper to taste

Combine red onion, lime juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl.  Let the onion marinate for at least 10 minutes to mellow it out.  In a large bowl, combine shrimp, tomato, avocado, and jalapeño.  Add the marinated onions and dressing.  Top with the cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste.
