Mango-Avacado Salad
My favorite salad - Takes some time to cut everything up, but it is delicious. If you're going to a bbq or a bigger affair, double the recipe.
2 Mangoes
2 Avacados
Bunch of green onions (scallions)
1/4-1/2 bunch of fresh cilantro
1 Can of organic black beans (optional - I've also used chicken and shrimp)
3 limes
In a large bowl, add cut up mangoes, avacados, and onions. Chop up and add cilantro. Drain and rinse black beans. Squeeze 3 limes over salad. GENTLY toss salad (if you mix it, the avacados end up mushy, like guacamole -which ruins the salad).
Serve chilled.
I don't know how many calories there are - because it depends on your servings. It's not a lot though, and simple enough to figure out.
I serve this with home made burgers, steak, chicken, etc. It's a great summer side. Everyone I have made this for has loved it.
Enjoy!
