Ensalada de Ceviche, or Mexican Ceviche Salad, is a delicious and refreshing dish that is popular in coastal regions of Mexico. 


Ceviche is a traditional Latin American seafood dish that is typically made with raw fish or shellfish that is marinated in citrus juice, which "cooks" the seafood. 


Ensalada de Ceviche takes this concept a step further by adding fresh vegetables and herbs to the mix, creating a vibrant and colorful salad.


The dish is believed to have originated in Peru, where it is still a popular dish today. However, ceviche has been adopted and adapted throughout Latin America, with each country and region putting its own spin on the dish.


In Mexico, ceviche is often served as a snack or appetizer, but the addition of vegetables and herbs in Ensalada de Ceviche makes it substantial enough to be served as a light lunch or dinner.


Ensalada de Ceviche is a perfect dish to enjoy on a hot summer day, as it is light, refreshing, and packed with flavor. 


It can be made with any type of firm white fish or shellfish, but shrimp is a popular choice. 


The dish is typically served with tortilla chips or tostadas, which provide a crispy and crunchy contrast to the soft and tender seafood. 


Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a healthy and delicious salad option, Ensalada de Ceviche is sure to become a new favorite in your recipe collection.
