Mango & Cilantro Guacamole


Mango & Cilantro Guacamole only takes 10 minutes to make and probably 2 minutes to eat. I couldn’t even finish taking the pictures before getting my dip on. I HAD to have a taste! I love the chunks of juicy mango!

This simple guacamole is perfect for spring, summer, and Cinco de Mayo. It goes well with fish, grilled chickenenchiladastostadas, or any Mexican meal. And you can’t go wrong with just opening a bag of chips and devouring the whole bowl. That is what I did:) Perfection!

The mango brightens up the guacamole and adds a hint of sweetness! This easy guacamole is perfect for any party!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 Hass avocados
  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion
  • 1 serrano chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • Tortila chips, for serving

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Cut each avocado in half lengthwise. Remove the pit from the avocado and discard. Remove the avocado from the skin, and place the avocado flesh in a bowl.
  2. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the skin of the mango. Using a sharp knife, slice the wide flat part of the fruit off one side of the pit. Repeat this process for the other side of the mango. Transfer the 2 mango slices to a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  3. Add the mango, cilantro, red onion, chile, lime juice, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mash with a fork until half smooth and half chunky. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.
