Ceviche is considered to be the national dish of Peru. Peru borders the Pacific Ocean on one long side of the country so this dish, traditionally made with fish or other seafood is eaten throughout the different regions. It's possible to find alternatives for those who eat vegan or vegetarian meals, but not as popular. You can make vegetable based ceviche at home in this Peruvian Style Mixto Ceviche made with mushrooms, zucchini and artichokes.
