Mango Avocado Salsa

Written by on in Dinner, Lunch, Recipes

My kids absolutely love mango, it just might be their favorite fruit. When getting them to try new flavors, I will often try to include familiar ingredient into the mix, which seems to make them more inclined to give it a try. That was my intent when first adding mango into this salsa, but what I found is that the mango not only made them more inclined to eat it, but the sweetness from the fruit elevated the whole dish and I was hooked. I could not stop eating it.

We live in California, so we’re lucky to have fresh avocados available year-round. This salsa is one of my favorite ways to use them, because the avocado adds a creamy texture and flavor to this bright, fresh salsa.

This salsa is one of my favorites because it is so versatile! Here are a few ways that I’ve served it:

  • As a topping for fish or chicken
  • As a dip for tortilla chips
  • As a side salad
