Mango Avocado Salsa

Mango Avocado Salsa 002

I could probably live on salsa..every type of salsa. Sweet, spicy..all kinds.
This is my favorite salsa of all times. It’s sweet from the mango and creamy from the avocado and a little spicy from the onion and cilantro. It’s just plain glorious.
Throw it on some chips, add it atop grilled chicken, salmon, salad..the possibilities are endless.
I normally use red onion for some color, but I forgot and got a Vidalia/sweet onion and it turned out perfect, it is just missing the pop of color from the red onion.

And how cute are my daughters chubby little 7 year old fingers holding the mango….I can’t stand it!

  1. Um…. yeah I am a salsa AND avocado freak too! I could totally eat this with just a spoon…. but chips are good too!

  2. Oh love salsa! I’ve been thinking of doing some with fruit recently but hasn’t thought of mixing it with avocado. Genius!! Lately I’ve been on a mexican kick….homemade salsa, tostadas, layered bean dip etc. Mmm…..

  3. YUM!!!!!

  4. These photos are gorgeous! I adore mango salsa, the avocado is a great addition!

  5. I could live on salsa too! I am a huge fan of fruit salsas so this one is right up my alley…plus avocado?! Sounds SO yummy!!

  6. I could live on mango salsa (or on mangoes without anything else, really) but to add avocado makes it dreamy!

  7. This sounds lovely! Yum!

    I love guacamole and mango salsa and you combined my two loves into one…GENIUS!! And you solved my “what am I going to serve for family to snack on while I’m grilling on Father’s day” dilemma. YAY for that!

  9. I really could eat the whole bowl full, with or with out chips. Avocado and mango are so delicious together and your dip is calling mt name!

  13. salsa is an amazingly diverse condiment–i like your creation, and i LOVE moe’s! 🙂

  14. So, would you be totally freaked out if I said that the chubby little fingers look just as appetizing as the mango? I’m sorry, but nothing is tastier than little fingers and toes. NOTHING.

  15. this sounds amazing – combining my 2 favorite foods that have giant stones in the middle 🙂
