Traditional Mexican Shrimp Cocktail

Serves 4 to 6.

1 large can V-8 juice (spicy if desired)
2 avocados, chopped
2 cucumbers, seeded and chopped
1 medium red onion, chopped
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
1 pound large shrimp, peeled, de-veined and steamed *
Limes, quartered
Tabasco sauce

Mix all ingredients in a large nonreactive container.

Serve with limes and Tabasco sauce.

* Do not over-cook the shrimp, as they will become tough!

Be careful when steaming the shrimp; you do not want it tough.
