Ceviche is the ultimate summer dish! It is cold and refreshing, doesn’t require cooking and can have anything you want in it!
Most restaurant ceviche has tilapia. You can throw in some cod, shrimp, scallops and squid if you choose. Just completely submerge in lime juice and marinate at least three hours. This version is completely whole food, plant based – so there is little marination time.
Ceviche
When I planned a vacation in Florida I checked out the local restaurants and realized how challenging it was going to be to find restaurants that would cater to my lifestyle. I ended up renting an airbnb so I could prepare our own meals. I wanted to make it as easy as possible because this WAS vacation! I remembered having ceviche on the beach in Mexico and thought I would try a vegan version. This was cool, light, easy and most of all delicious!

Notes
This is a Snappy Sheep recipe!
Hijiki is a dried seaweed product that imparts a rather fishy flavor. It is one of the more pungent seaweed products I use. You can substitute kelp, dulse, nori or wakame if you prefer or just leave it out if you do not want a fishy flavor.
