Ingredients
  

2 ripe mangos, peeled and diced into bite-sized pieces

1 large ripe avocado, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Juice of 1 lime

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Optional: 1 jalapeño, finely chopped (for a spicy kick)

Optional: 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (for a creamy touch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by carefully peeling the mangos and dicing them into bite-sized pieces, discarding any large pits. Next, slice the avocado and cut it into similar-sized pieces to promote even flavor distribution.

    Chop the Vegetables: Halve the cherry tomatoes and chop the red onion finely. If you prefer some heat, finely chop the jalapeño as well, adjusting the amount based on your spice preference. Lastly, roughly chop the fresh cilantro for a burst of flavor.

      Combine the Salad: In a large mixing bowl, gently fold together the diced mangos, avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, and jalapeño (if using). Be careful not to mash the avocado while mixing.

        Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice and olive oil until combined. This dressing will add brightness to the salad.

          Season the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Gently toss everything together, ensuring that the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.

            Garnish for Appeal: For an extra touch of flavor and presentation, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top and finish with the chopped cilantro.

              Serve: This refreshing salad is best enjoyed immediately to preserve its vibrant colors and fresh textures. However, if needed, you can refrigerate it for up to 30 minutes before serving to chill it slightly without losing its quality.
