A Romantic Meal with Peruvian Shrimp Chowder and Champagne

Peruvian Fish Saltimbocca for your Next Romantic Meal

Peruvian Fish Saltimbocca

I adore avocados. To me avocados make a salad sensational. I must have avocados when enjoying a quesadilla, and I love pairing avocados with steak, fried eggs and some seafood dish. Speaking of which, i was completely taken by this recipe and had to share it as a wonderful choice for your next Romantic Meal for two. xoxo
