Made for The Quest 2014 and what a lucky find it was! I had a dinner party last night for 9 and just happened to have an abundance of avocado, baby shrimp and smoked salmon on-hand. So I used a combo of the baby shrimp and smoked salmon, added capers for their lovely burst of flavor, was generous with my lemon pepper & even had fresh chives from the garden of a friend. Sounded like fate to me when I found your recipe. We loved our lunch today, LL. Thx for sharing your recipe with us. :-)

Boy have not had shrimp stuffed avocado in years and it is just as good as I remember it being. I cut the recipe down to serve two and left out the peas as I know what I used to enjoy never had peas. The Worcestershire is a must I know it is only a drop but it really does add to the recipe. I was out of fresh chive so used freeze-dried chives. Thanks for the post.

This is a 5 star recipe all the way for me. I knew that this was going to be great just from reading the recipe and I think shrimp and avocado were meant for each other. I made this for a lighter dinner served with a side of Cole slaw. Lots of lovely flavor that I thoroughly loved. Made for ZWT 9.

What a wonderful dish! I love avocados and shrimp so I was happy to make this. Like Sydney Mike's review I used one large avocado for DH and I and used the full amount of the filling and served part of the filling on bread for an appetizer...heaven. Thank you for submitting and this is going into my Favorites of 2012. Made for the Think Pink 2012 tag game.
