Shrimp "Cocktail" with Spicy Horseradish Salsa. The one I made was
served in a cocktail glass: Shrimp, cubed avocado, a little diced
celery and some minced red/yellow/orange/green bell peppers and some
sliced scallions all squirted with a little lemon (so the avocados
don't brown) and the salsa was either spooned on or passed. I really
love horseradish, but your favorite salsa (green? red? hot? mild?
chipotle?) would be fine.

Eats avocados with a spoon when the ones in the store look good and I
can afford them.
