SHRIMP - SANIBEL SUNSHINE SHRIMP APPETIZER
Serves 6. This is a tasty variation of the traditional shrimp cocktail with a little zip thanks to the avocado, grapefruit and chili sauce.

Cut each grapefruit in half and remove sections, placing them in a large non-metal mixing bowl. Scrape out 6 of the grapefruit halves and set them aside.
