Equipment

  • cutting board
  • Chef’s knife
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Small Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spoon or salad tongs

Ingredients

  • 2-3 mangoes (ripe but firm)
  • 1 large avocado (sliced)
  • 1/2 red onion (sliced)
  • 1 Cup cherry tomatoes (sliced)
  • 1 garlic clove (grated)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt (or salt to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (fresh ground)

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the mangoes into strips. I like to cut them crosswise so the pieces are shorter and easier to eat. If you prefer a milder onion flavor, soak the sliced red onions in ice water for a few minutes, then drain well. Add the mangoes, red onion, and cherry tomatoes to a large bowl and set aside.
  • Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together the grated garlic, lime juice, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper until well combined. The lime juice in the dressing helps keep the avocado fresh and vibrant.
  • Peel and slice the avocado, then add it to the bowl with the mango mixture. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and gently toss to combine.
