Mexican Shrimp Cocktail

Recipesfull introduces to you: Seafood Recipes. (Mexican Shrimp Cocktail). I first tried something similar to this in San Antonio and could never find a recipe that really recaptured what I had there. I experimented and finally came up with this. Anyone who has tried it has begged for the recipe. Try it with tortilla chips!
