Avocado Mango Salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that combines the creaminess of ripe avocados with the sweetness of fresh mangoes, balanced with a tangy dressing. Here’s a simple recipe to make Avocado Mango Salad:
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe avocados, diced
- 1 large ripe mango, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Additions:
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped (for a spicy kick)
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup cucumber, diced
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine diced avocado, mango, red onion, and cilantro.
- In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the avocado and mango mixture. Gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- If you’re adding optional ingredients like jalapeño pepper, red bell pepper, cucumber, or cherry tomatoes, gently fold them into the salad at this point.
- Once everything is combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, give the salad a gentle toss to redistribute the dressing.
- Serve chilled as a side dish or as a topping for grilled chicken, fish, or tacos.
