- Use ripe avocados: Ensure that the avocados are ripe but still firm to the touch. This will provide the best creamy texture without becoming mushy.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Boil the shrimp until they are pink and opaque throughout, usually about 2-3 minutes, to avoid overcooking which can make them rubbery.
- Chill before serving: For a refreshing salad, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- Adjust seasoning to taste: Feel free to add salt, pepper, or even red pepper flakes for some heat. Customize the seasoning to match your personal preference.
