Ingredients
- 2 ripe mangoes, diced
- 2 ripe avocados, diced
- 1 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño pepper, minced
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation Steps
Start by preparing the fruit and vegetables. Dice the mangoes and avocados into small, even pieces. Finely chop the red onion and mince the jalapeño, adjusting the amount based on your spice preference.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced mangoes, avocados, chopped onion, and minced jalapeño. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture to add flavor and prevent the avocado from browning.
Add the chopped cilantro, then gently toss all ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. For a spicier salsa, add more jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the spicy mango and avocado salsa immediately with a generous side of crispy tortilla chips. It also pairs well with grilled meats or as a topping for tacos. For a colorful presentation, garnish with extra cilantro or lime wedges.
This salsa is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. Enjoy the perfect blend of sweet, spicy, and creamy flavors in every bite!
