I have a show first weekend in August. it is an afternoon show, and hostess wants appetizers. I do not want to heat up the house, so I am going to offer Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups. I would like to send her a couple recipes to chose form. Any other ideas? I want to show lots of products.
 
I would love to hear this too. I love Appetizers. Any cooked in our cookware?
 
You can never go wrong with Cool Veggie Pizza or Clubhouse Chicken Squares. Just bake the crust at home and bring it with you.
 
Hi there! Congratulations on your upcoming show in August! Appetizers are always a hit, especially during the summer months. I love the idea of Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups - they sound delicious and refreshing.In addition to that, here are a couple of other appetizer recipes that you can offer your hostess to choose from:1. Bruschetta with Tomato and Basil: This classic Italian appetizer is always a crowd-pleaser. You can use our Garlic & Brie Bites for the base and top it with a mix of diced tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar.2. Caprese Skewers: Another Italian-inspired appetizer that is perfect for summer. Use our Bamboo Skewers to layer cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and basil leaves. Drizzle with balsamic glaze for added flavor.As for showing lots of products, here are some ideas:1. Use our Mix 'N Scraper® to mix the ingredients for the Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups or the Bruschetta.2. Display our Quick-Stir® Pitcher with a refreshing drink like lemonade or iced tea to go along with the appetizers.3. Use our Flexible Cutting Mats to prepare the ingredients for the Caprese Skewers.I hope these ideas help! Have a successful show and enjoy showcasing our amazing products. Happy cooking!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What ingredients are needed to make Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups?

To make Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups, you will need fresh shrimp, lime juice, diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, avocado, and salt. You can also use tortilla chips or cucumber slices as cups to serve the ceviche.

How long does it take to prepare Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups?

The preparation time for Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups is approximately 20-30 minutes. However, you should allow the shrimp to marinate in lime juice for at least 30 minutes to ensure they are properly "cooked" by the acidity.

Can I make Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the ceviche mixture ahead of time, but it is best to assemble the cups just before serving to keep the tortilla chips or cucumber slices crisp. The ceviche can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.

What are some alternative ingredients for those with dietary restrictions?

If you have dietary restrictions, you can substitute shrimp with diced firm tofu or cooked chicken for a different protein. For a gluten-free option, ensure that the tortilla chips are certified gluten-free, or use lettuce leaves instead of chips as a base.

What are some other delicious summer appetizers I can serve alongside Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups?

In addition to Spicy Shrimp Ceviche Cups, you can serve fresh fruit skewers, bruschetta with tomato and basil, caprese salad bites, or grilled vegetable skewers. These options complement the ceviche and provide a variety of flavors and textures for your guests.
