Chef Tips

This recipe is also good a good way to use mangoes that are a little under-ripe. The salsa will just be a little more tart.

If the large, glossy, bright green Florida avocados is available in the market, try them in this salsa. They are sweeter and not quite as creamy as the usual Haas variety, and is a perfect complement to the mangoes.
