I got this recipe from a coworker from Mexico. Since I live in the southwest, I make this recipe year round at work, but it is demanded in summer! My customers and anyone else who tries this loves it! You can add small shrimp to make this a main course or serve as a light lunch or appetizer. Keeps refrigerated for 1 week. Ingredients:
4 stalks celery, diced |
3 red bell peppers, diced |
3 yellow bell peppers, diced |
2 cucumbers, chopped |
4 small avocados - peeled, pitted, and diced |
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped |
1 bunch green onions, diced |
1/2 red onion, diced |
1 (46 fluid ounce) bottle tomato-vegetable juice cocktail (such as v8®) |
2 (32 ounce) bottles tomato and clam juice cocktail |
1 (12 ounce) bottle hot pepper sauce (such as cholula®) |
1/3 cup red wine vinegar |
1/3 cup lemon juice |
3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste |
1 tablespoon garlic powder |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Combine celery, red and yellow bell peppers, cucumbers, avocados, cilantro, green onions, red onion, tomato-vegetable juice cocktail, tomato and claim juice cocktail, hot pepper sauce, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, and garlic powder in a large nonreactive bowl.
