This Strawberry Mango Avocado Salsa is bursting with colour, flavour and nutrients. Serve it up with tortilla chips or grilled chicken or fish for the ultimate refreshing meal or appetizer! {gluten-free & paleo}
A few weeks ago, I went on a bit of a whim and bought a whole bunch of fresh strawberries. After all, it is strawberry season.
I had a whole bunch of ideas for what I wanted to do with the strawberries, but then life happened, and the strawberries sat there for days on end.
Finally, I said I REALLY gotta do something with these things, so I buckled down and made one of the recipes that I had been eying for a while.
Strawberry Mango Avocado Salsa.
Doesn’t that just look like a party in your mouth?!
My inspiration for this recipe came from the Oh She Glows cookbook because I fell in love with all of the beautiful colours.
Not only do the colours make you want to do a nosedive right into this salad (especially on a hot summer day!), but the flavours are SO refreshing too.
Ingredients for this Strawberry Mango Avocado Salsa
So based on the title of the recipe, you’ve probably already guessed that this recipe is pretty straight forward.
The first three ingredients are fairly basic, but you’ll want to add in a few additional ingredients to give it that special pop of flavour.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Fresh Strawberries
- Ripe mango
- Ripe avocado (you want the avocado to be ripe, but still fairly firm so that it doesn’t turn to complete mush).
- Red onion
- Lime Juice
- A touch of honey
- Fresh cilantro
- Salt to taste
How Long Does this Strawberry Mango Avocado Salsa keep?
For the ultimate salsa, I recommend making up this recipe a few hours in advance to allow all of the flavours to come together.
In general, it’s best served when fresh since the fruit and cilantro maintain their vibrant hue.
However, if you serve it up the next day, it’s not the end of the world. It still tastes fabulous, it just doesn’t look quite as pretty.
So for best results, I suggest serving it up fresh out of the fridge within a few hours after preparing it.
