Ceviche Verde
Savor the taste of summer with Ceviche Verde, a delightful recipe that offers bright flavors without heating the kitchen.
How about an interesting recipe that does not require cooking from the stove or oven? That’s what I was thinking recently during our interminable heat wave. Warming up the house that the air conditioner has labored all day to keep somewhat cool was just not appealing to me.
This ceviche verde has everything I want in a summer dinner. It is light, healthy, easy to prepare, has interesting flavors, and does not call for an oven to be turned on. The acid from the citrus that cures the fish. Therefore, it “cooks” like magic.
Served as an appetizer, light lunch or dinner, this is a simple and satisfying way to enjoy bright summer flavors in a no-cook seafood salad. Maybe I should call this seafood salsa.
