They can be made in a few minutes or even prepared overnight to enjoy the next day. The toppings below are more traditional options but feel free to remove or add more to your taste!

Here’s a video of how I make them!

You’ll need:

1 lb of fresh uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 roma tomatoes (diced)

1 jalapeno (diced)

1 lime

½ red onion (diced)

½ cup of cilantro

2 avocados

Cotija cheese (crumbled)

1 packet of tostadas

Salt and pepper

How to:

-       Rise your shrimp under cold water and pat dry. Next, season generously with salt and pepper.

-       In a medium frying pan, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Let the shrimp cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and then remove from heat.

-       Next, prepare your guacamole by adding avocados, lime juice and a handful of the diced ingredients. This ensures the ingredients hold together and don’t fall out while you eat! Add salt and pepper to taste.

-       Finally, the plating. Spread your guac somewhat evenly over the tostada. Add the shrimp and your desired toppings.

-       Finish off with cotija cheese, lime juice and a little sea salt.

Enjoy!
