Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

cook's notes
This is a recipe I made up after having a salad like this at a party. In real ceviche fish like red snapper or pompano are used. The acid of the lime juice changes the proteins in the fish turning it white and opaque as if it had been cooked. It is not easy for me to get fish as fresh as I would want for this, so I just use cooked seafood. We prefer more shellfish in the mix.

This ceviche was FANTASTIC! I love the ceviche I've had at restaurants and this was my first time making it. Although, I was a little surprised that the seafood was cooked first. I thought that it was usually "cooked" by sitting in the acidic mixture. Either way, this was was very good. I used shrimp, scallops, and snapper.
