Shrimp Ceviche

SAVE ✓ SAVED ADD TO MEAL PLAN PRINT

This is one of our favorite dishes from our favorite local farmers, the Flores Family. The Dr. Yum Project has worked with G. Flores Produce for many years. They have generously shared veggies for us to use for cooking classes, outreach events, and food photo days. When we had our teaching garden, they often gave us seedlings to get our season started.
