Mango Avocado Salsa

Fresh, vibrant, and delicious, this hits all the right notes: sweet and savory, with a little kick and a lot of lime! This makes a fantastic appetizer or a simple yet elevated topping for tacos, chicken, or fish.

Ingredients

  • 1 mango about 1.5 cups, cut into very small cubes
  • 1 avocado about 1 cup, cut into very small cubes
  • 1/2 jalapeno pepper seeded and diced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 2-3 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • juice of 1/2 lime
  • pinch kosher salt

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and stir gently to combine. Sample and add extra lime juice and/or salt to taste. Enjoy!
    1 mango, 1 avocado, 1/2 jalapeno pepper, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 2-3 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, juice of 1/2 lime, pinch kosher salt

Notes

  • Make ahead: Mango avocado salsa tastes best freshly made, but to prep ahead, combine everything except the avocado, store tightly-covered in the fridge, then cut and mix in the avocado cubes immediately before serving. If it will be out for a little while, you can also spritz the avocado directly with lime juice to help reduce browning. 
  • Heat level: Adjust the amount of jalapeno to your liking, or leave it out entirely for a truly mild salsa.
  • Yield notes: This recipe makes approximately 2 and 1/4 cups of salsa, which I find enough to serve 8-10 as an appetizer or taco topping, and 4-6 if pairing it with grilled chicken or seafood for a meal. The exact yield will vary depending on the size of your mango and avocado.
