1/3 large bottle ketchup

1/3 large bottle clamato

freshly squeezed lime juice, to taste

1-2 diced onions

1 large diced English or 2 regular cucumber(s)

finely chopped cilantro, to taste

salt, to taste

method:

Combine all ingredients in large serving dish or plastic container.

Spoon in individual serving bowls with a little olive oil to taste and serve with soup crackers.

Natalie says: "This simple dish was prepared for my spouse and I here in Canada by my Mexican brother-in-law Paco who lives in Los Cabos Mexico in Baja California Sur.  He's my husband's brother.

We really enjoyed it and it's just so nutritious.  Imagine how good it must be with fresh seafood instead of the frozen we get here from our supermarkets in Calgary!"
