This salad goes well with almost anything! It’s a hit at BBQs and tastes great with grilled chicken, salmon, shrimp, or steak. You can also enjoy it with sides like rice or fries.
How Do I Know If a Mango is Ripe?
Give it a gentle squeeze. A ripe mango will be slightly soft to the touch. Look for a golden color and a fruity smell near the stem.
Can I Make This Salad Ahead of Time?
It’s best to enjoy this salad right away because the avocados can change color quickly. But you can prepare all the ingredients in advance and add the avocados just before serving. Any leftovers can be stored in the fridge in a sealed container.
