- ½ cup red onion, thinly sliced – from a small red onion
- 1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped (optional)
- ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions

Notes
- Yields: The finished salad is about 4 cups with 1 cup per serving.
- Storage: You can store the salad in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy it for up to two days.
- Cut them in similar bite-size chunks: For best results, cut avocado and mango cubes in similar sizes.
- Toss gently: Avocado tends to turn mushy if over-handled, so be sure to toss your salad gently when combining.
