Cut the 3/4 pound of red Argentinian shrimp into bite-sized pieces.

Place the shrimp in a bowl and add lime juice to cook them without heat.

Use a citrus press to extract about 3/4 to 1 cup of lime juice.

Finely mince the jalapeños, adjusting for heat preference by including or excluding seeds and ribs.

Cut the bell pepper into julienne strips and then dice them small.

If using, check the tomatoes for ripeness; if they are too soft, do not use them.

After the shrimp have marinated in the lime juice for about 30 minutes to an hour, add the chopped vegetables and fresh cilantro to the shrimp.

If desired, add avocado to the mixture.

Stir everything together and let it chill in the fridge for another 30 to 60 minutes before serving.
