Avocado Mango Salad

Submitted by Shannon in VA

"I bruise easily, and Vitamin A is the key. I try to find interesting ways to serve Avocado because it is so rich in Vitamin A. (I don't worry about the fat in Avocado). This goes well as a side dish for Enchiladas, Quesadillas or any Mexican style foods."

Made as shown. I found this recipe does nothing to enhance or improve the natural flavours of the mango or avacado. Will not make again.

Very good and so light. I love that it doesn't have dressing but still has a lot of flavor. The only thing I added was some fresh squeezed lime juice once the plates were compiled. It was a nice contrast to the sweetness of the mango.

This is very good, and a great and unique way to serve them. I've made it with banana and mango (when avocados are out of season), and it's delicious that way too. It's good on lettuce or without

This was easy to make and totally yummy. I made this as a side salad using more lettuce than one leaf and it was still fabulous. My family thought the mixture of textures and flavors were great. I have already repeated it w/ grilled chicken and some olive oil for a meal salad because the flavor combo is so good.

Oh my, the combination of the cool, sweet fruits and hot spicy seasonings made this a fabulous fruit salad. I still have plenty of the spice mixture left over so I'm going try it on other combinations of fruit. A great find!
