AVOCADO STUFFED WITH SHRIMP
Good friends introduced us to Avocado Surprise in Puerto Penasco so this is my take on it. I used Recipe#17293 to cook the shrimp. Could be an appetizer or summer luncheon dish. Preparation includes 1 hour to chill. You could also make the shrimp salad aspect earlier in day as I have done. After looking at Sarah_Jayne's review, I agree that the salad aspect is slippery so have changed the directions a bit so it "works" better.

Steps:
- Using a medium sized bowl, mix mayonnaise, rice vinegar, parsley, dill weed, salt, onion powder, and pepper until smooth.
- Mix in the shrimp, olives, celery, and onion.
- Allow salad to marinate at least 1 hour.
- Shortly before serving, cut avocados in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pits leaving the skins intact.
- Cut a small sliver of avocado off each half so that it will lie flatter on serving plate.
- Carefully remove several tablespoons of pulp, cut into bite size pieces, and RESERVE 4 tablespoons of pulp for garnish.
- Mix majority of pulp with shrimp mixture.
- Lay one piece of Bibb lettuce on each serving plate, add avocado shell, and spoon shrimp mixture into the avocado halves.
- Sprinkle paprika on.
- Garnish by dividing RESERVED pulp between portions.
AVOCADO STUFFED WITH SHRIMP
As typically Mexican as the previous recipe is, this one is just as typically American, right down to the Miracle Whip, which I have always preferred to mayonnaise. Naturally sweet shrimp is highlighted by a creamy, mildly sweet, tangy dressing and rich, buttery avocado. This is one of my favorite summer appetizers.

- Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Place one avocado half on each of 8 small plates. Fill each half with a heaping scoop of the shrimp salad and serve.
SHRIMP SALAD-STUFFED AVOCADOS
This is one of my husband's favorites, even though it's pretty enough to serve at a ladies luncheon. When I needed a quick main-dish salad for my book club, I just tripled the recipe and got raves! Try it with imitation crabmeat, too. -Suzanne VanAlstyne, Petoskey, Michigan

SPICY SHRIMP STUFFED AVOCADOS
These are a favorite at every family gathering, no matter the time of year. The different shades of green that make up the rings when you split the avocados are gorgeous. You can also use a red pepper in place of the jalapeno for a little added pop of color.

Steps:
- 1. Saute the shrimp over medium heat in a small skillet. The shrimp will turn pink and opaque when it's done (about 2 minutes).
- 2. Meanwhile, mix together the minced jalapeno pepper and pepperjack cheese. Season the mixture with cumin, salt, and pepper. In a different bowl, mix together panko crumbs and parmesan cheese (set this bowl aside for frying later).
- 3. Once the shrimp are cooked, remove them from the heat and chop them finely. Add the shrimp to the cheese and jalapeno mixture and mix well so that there is even distribution of meat / cheese.
- 4. For the frying, you'll need to mix together the panko crumbs and parmesan cheese into a small bowl. You'll also need to fill a cast iron dutch oven with your vegetable oil, at least 3 inches. If you don't have a cast iron dutch oven, a deep skillet will work too. Make sure the oil is hot before you begin frying.
- 5. Cut the avocados length-wise. Carefully remove the pits and scoop the meat out of their shells. Be careful not to break the meat, they should be whole with no holes in them. You can season the meat with salt and pepper. I prefer either sea or kosher salt, but table salt is fine, too. If some of the avocados had very small pits, use a teaspoon to try to scoop a little more out and give yourself some more room for the filling.
- 6. Carefully fill the pit-holes in the avocados with the shrimp and cheese mixture. Do not over-stuff, the filling should come just to the edge of the hole. As you stuff the avocados, carefully replace the halves together. They will usually stick right back together (unless there's too much stuffing) but you may need to fiddle a bit to get them seamless.
- 7. Next, carefully roll the avocados to coat them in the panko crumbs / parmesan cheese mixture.
- 8. Carefully drop the avocado into the hot oil. Cook until the panko crumbs / parmesan cheese turn a nice golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). When they're ready, remove them from the oil and drain.
- 9. Split the avocados down the middle where they were cut before, and serve hot.
