Chop the purple onion and add it to the shrimp with more lime juice.

Cut 1.5 cucumbers (or 2 if preferred) and add to the mixture.

Dice the tomatoes and add them to the bowl.

Chop the cilantro, keeping most of the stems for flavor, and add to the mixture.

Add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to taste, adjusting as desired.

Mix everything well and add any remaining lime juice.
