This is a fruit salad my mother-in-law makes, and it is just wonderful and probably the best I have ever had. If you don't like a particular fruit, just substitute it with one that you like! Sometimes my mother-in-law uses peeled and chopped pear in this recipe, you can use pomegranate seeds, mandarin oranges...just whatever seasonal fruit is available to you, it's a very forgiving recipe and completely full of vitamins.

Best Ever Ceviche
This sea bass ceviche is a juicy freshness overload and truly the best ceviche I've ever had. The flavors are bright, slightly salty, with a kick of heat and a bit of sweetness. Cold and crunchy with tender fish and creamy avocado, the textures are very well balanced. The mango adds a delightful sweet burst.
