This is among my favorite dishes for lunch. Depending upon your taste you can add ingredients other than the ones I have used here. For example, you can add hazelnuts and avocado slices if you want.
Seafood lovers like me will like Scallop Cerviche a lot. This is because the dish is extremely rich in protein and carbs. It is also low on fat.
The dish tastes wonderful especially when you have it right after it is prepared. This recipe was given to me by my aunt. She is a great cook herself and liked my preparation!
I recommend this dish to everyone, especially seafood lovers!
