Here’s a Weight Watchers-friendly Shrimp Ceviche recipe that’s light, refreshing, and perfect for a healthy snack or appetizer!


Ingredients

  • 1 lb cooked shrimp, peeled, deveined, and chopped (small pieces)
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 4-6 limes)
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped (optional, for spice)
  • 1 cup cucumber, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, diced (optional for topping, adds points)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with lime and lemon juice. Stir to coat, then cover and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
  2. Prepare Vegetables: While the shrimp marinates, dice the tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, cucumber, and cilantro.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add the vegetables to the shrimp mixture. Stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Chill: Cover and refrigerate for another 10–15 minutes to let the flavors develop.
  5. Serve: Serve chilled with optional avocado on top, and enjoy with tortilla chips, over lettuce as a salad, or on its own.

WW Points

  • The base recipe (without avocado or chips) is typically 0–2 WW points per serving, depending on the shrimp size and portion.
  • Add points for avocado or tortilla chips if included.

Tips

  • For a more citrusy punch, add a splash of orange juice.
  • Use pre-cooked shrimp for convenience or fresh raw shrimp, ensuring they are fully “cooked” in the citrus juice.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 1 day (ceviche is best eaten fresh).

Enjoy this zesty, protein-packed dish that’s perfect for Weight Watchers!
