RECIPE: Avocado, Tomato, & Mango Salsa

adapted from Allrecipes.com


Difficulty:2 stars
Taste:4.5 stars

Pros: Unique salsa with easy-to-find ingredients.
Cons: A good bit of chopping involved.
Bottom Line: Impressive flavors with little skill required.



This salsa is a great go-to dish when you need to put something together quickly for a party or get-together (just double the ingredients if it's going to be a big party - it will go far). It is a refreshing, new take on salsa that easily impresses. Only a little time and some chopping are involved to throw this dish together. Even the ingredients are ones that can be easily found at any grocery store. The fresh, bright flavors of the mango, tomato, and avocado and the no-cook recipe make this one a great summer dish.


Avocado, Tomato, & Mango Salsa

1 mango - peeled, seeded, & diced
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, & diced
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded & minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1 teaspoon olive oil

Chop the mango, avocado, tomatoes, jalapeño, cilantro, and garlic and combine in a bowl. Add the salt, lime juice, red onion, and olive oil. Stir to combine.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors develop.

  1. I had this salsa at a party once, and LOVED it!
    It's a nice change from any normal, typical salsa out of a jar!
