Description
A bright, sweet, and creamy salsa perfect for meal prep, featuring ripe mangoes, strawberries, and avocado with a zesty lime dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium ripe mangoes (Alphonso or Ataulvo preferred), diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
- 1 large ripe Hass avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 2–3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon honey or agave (optional)
Instructions
- Peel the mangoes and slice the flesh off the pit. Dice the mango into 1/2-inch cubes and place in a mixing bowl.
- Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly to remove excess water. Remove green tops and dice into small pieces similar in size to the mango. Add to the bowl.
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Dice into cubes matching the size of the other fruits and add to the bowl.
- Finely dice the red onion. For a milder flavor, soak in ice water for 5-10 minutes, then drain and pat dry. Mince the jalapeño and chop the cilantro. Add all aromatics to the bowl.
- In a small cup, whisk together the fresh lime juice, sea salt, black pepper, and honey (if using) until dissolved.
- Pour the dressing over the fruit and vegetable mixture. Gently toss everything together with a large spoon. Taste and adjust salt or lime if needed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
Ensure fruit is ripe but firm to prevent mushiness. Dry strawberries thoroughly to avoid watery salsa. Soak red onion in cold water to mellow the bite. Store in airtight containers for up to 4 days. Do not freeze as avocado texture will change.
