Deep Sea Diver Scallop Ceviche
Last week I went to see Cayucas with some friends, and before we headed out to the show, I made this tasty ceviche as a light pre-concert meal. It was inspired by their song “Deep Sea Diver”, and it was summery, fresh, and reminiscent of the ocean, just like the band’s music!

Quartered and tossed in lime.
Cucumber and mint make this super fresh tasting.
I think im falling in LOOOO-Oo-Oo-OovEEEE.
It’s like eating sunshine!
