Instructions

1

Prep the Produce

Dice the mangoes and avocados into uniform half inch cubes for the best texture. Finely dice the red onion and jalapeno. Place diced avocado in a bowl and immediately toss with lime juice to prevent browning.

2

Combine Ingredients

Add the diced mango, red onion, and jalapeno to the bowl with the avocado. Gently fold everything together being careful not to mash the avocado pieces.

3

Season the Salsa

Add the chopped cilantro, salt, and cayenne pepper. Gently toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning adding more lime juice for brightness or more cayenne for heat.

4

Rest the Flavors

Let the salsa rest at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. This allows the salt to draw out the juices and the flavors to meld together beautifully.

5

Serve

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken or fish. Do not make this more than 2 hours ahead as the avocado will oxidize and turn brown.

Substitutions

Common mistakes
