Ingredients
- 2 ripe or semi-ripe mangos, peeled and diced about 663 grams
- 2 ripe avocado, peeled and chopped about 473 grams
- 2 green onions, finely chopped (white and green parts)
- 1 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro 50 grams
- 1 cup chopped red bell pepper about 150 grams
- 3 tablespoons roasted sunflower seeds salted or unsalted
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 to 3 tablespoons lime juice start with 2 and add more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon salt or more to taste
- 1 fresh Red Chile pepper or jalapeño seeded and minced (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, gently combine the mangos, avocados, onions, cilantro, bell pepper, and sunflower seeds.
- Coat with olive oil and lime juice.
- Gently toss the ingredients to combine. Season with salt to taste and toss again.
- If preferred, stir in the pepper, if you like to add some heat or serve on the side.
Notes
- Helpful Tips:
- Let the salad rest for 10 minutes allowing the flavors to come together.
- Chop the creamy avocado, bell pepper, and sweet mango into bite-size pieces. This will balance the flavors.
- Finely chop the cilantro and green onions. Their sharper flavors will complement the avocado mango salad.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for a snack or next-day lunch—it is good for up to two or three days. The lime or lemon juice will keep the avocados from browning.
