Mango Strawberry Avocado Salad with Pan-fried Tilapia

I Love Mangoes!

I have a confession to make – I LOVE MANGOES! Mango smoothie, mango stir-fry, mango chicken coconut curry, mango muffins, mango sauce; listen, am here for mango anything! And throughout the summer, I have been loving this very Mango salad; the only problem is that I didn’t know what to call it. Mango salad avocado, mango salsa, avocado salad, mango Strawberry avocado Salad with Tilapia Fish, mango avocado salad, strawberry mango salsa, fruit salad, etc.! Anyways, I am just going to roll with mango strawberry avocado salad! Phew!

Best Mango Avocado Salad

Easy to make and most delightful mango strawberry avocado salad is fresh, flavorful, bright, crisp, and sweet! This salad is loaded with a combination of fruits and vegetables in season during the summer. A fruit salad you can serve with meat or fish for a more filling meal or use as salsa. Equally, this is one fresh and flavorful salad that you can load up on salad greens. Did I hear you say perfection? Yes, indeed!

The best way to use the abundance of summer fruits would be to make mango strawberry avocado salad. Listen, it’s worth it! Also, you can make this salad any time, any day, summer or not—fall, spring, or whenever you have the ingredients.

How to Store the Leftover:

We rarely have leftovers of this mango avocado salad. Personally, I like making this fruit salad or salsa (whatever you call it) fresh and finishing it all the same day. On the other hand, if you make a lot and plan to store leftovers afterward, just remember that avocado changes color. However, due to the inclusion of lime juice in this fresh salsa recipe, it may not turn all the way brown.

At the same time, I would recommend only making the quantity you plan to finish on the same day. To enjoy the fresh, crisp flavors of this mango strawberry avocado salad, eat it on the same day!

Tips for Making the Best Mango Strawberry Avocado Salad

• Use the fruits and vegetables you have. Cucumber, tomatoes can work in this fruit salad; try to cut them into similar shapes. You can equally add apples or pear. 
• Make sure not to use overripe fruits. This is because you will still need to cut them and want them to hold their shapes. Use overly ripe fruits in smoothies and baking but not in mango strawberry avocado salad, aka fruit salad.
• Do not over-combine. The last thing you want is a semi-mashed-up salad!
• Make this recipe vegan by using tofu instead of fish.
• Drizzle a little honey if you wish for some sweetness; this is optional and totally up to you.
