A Puerto Rican friend of mine introduced me to this Caribbean-style sweet-n-spicy ceviche. She mentioned that ceviche is not native to Puerto Rico. They simply added their own native touch of ingredients and made it their own. The combination of ingredients and the sweet and spicy flavor makes this ceviche a delicious dish, which can be served as a light and refreshing meal. You can also serve it up as an appetizer with tortilla chips or with a few lettuce leaves. I hope you enjoy this ceviche as much as I do. MORE + LESS -
