I just love how refreshing and tasty ceviche is.

Ceviche is just a perfect dish anytime.  Therefore, anytime of the year, anytime of the day or for any course.  And this vegan, vegetarian version of ceviche is absolutely no exception!

Of course traditionally ceviche is made with seafood.  You will see shrimp ceviche, tilapia ceviche, scallop ceviche, just to name a few on restaurant menus or all over the internet.  But if you are a little short on time to make a shrimp or fish ceviche, really consider making this cauliflower ceviche.  In 30 minutes or less, you will be enjoying that distinctive flavor that only ceviche has.

How to Make Cauliflower Ceviche

Begin with chopping up a red onion, mushrooms, tomatoes, scallions, jalapeño and cilantro.  Then chop the cauliflower into florets.

Boil the cauliflower for a few minutes in boiling water.

Chop the florets into smaller pieces or finely chop.  This part is a matter of personal preference.

Mix all the vegetables, fresh lime juice and fresh cilantro together with a little bit of salt and pepper.

Let the Cauliflower ceviche marinate for 25 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.  Serve with tortilla chips, on tostadas with mashed avocado or scoop ceviche in the center of a halve avocado.

This ceviche dish is that simple!
