How to Make Stuffed Avocado Cauliflower Ceviche

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.
Cut the avocados in half and top with cauliflower ceviche and if you like to make this dish even more delicious and refreshing, top with salsa verde.
You can also scoop some of the avocado flesh from the center to create a bigger cavity to hold the cauliflower ceviche.
This ceviche dish is that simple!
Note: If you find yourself with extra cauliflower ceviche, you can always use the leftovers in a serving of cauliflower ceviche tostadas or serve with tortilla chips as a dip.
