SHRIMP STUFFED AVOCADOS
I saw this recipe in our local newspaper; it sounds like a good appetizer or light meal for a summer's gathering. (Cooking time is actually cooling time.)

Steps:
- Toss the shrimp with the tomatoes in a large bowl.
- Squeeze the lime juice in another bowl. With a small melon baller, remove 6 balls from each avocado half and save the leftover shells of the avocado halves intact, to use for serving the salad. Toss the lime juice into the avocado balls and then drain the juice into a bowl. Rub the exposed avocado halves with the drained lime juice; discard extra lime juice.
- Add both the cantaloupe and honeydew melon balls, and avocado balls to the shrimp and tomato mixture.
- Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and chopped cilantro. Fold into the shrimp mixture. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fill each avocado half evenly with the salad filling and cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving. Just before serving, garnish with cilantro sprigs, if desired.

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.

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
