Recently I bought some avocado because Iwas having that kind of craving. You know, the one that won't go away until you get what you want? I am the only person in our two person household who will eat avocado. I sure do miss having Justin & Chris around at feeding time. They definitely are not as picky as Grumpy is! I wasn't sure what I was going to do with the avocado until I happened on this faceless (no more) recipe from allrecipes for Avocado Tomato Mango Salsa!
I really wasn't so sure I was going to want to put tomato and mango together. However, I decided it was going to need some more color than the green and yellow and went with it anyway. This was not a bad decision! Surprisingly to me, the flavors melded together quite well. Maybe I am the minority in thinking that tomato and mango did not go together? I ate this alongside some grilled chicken and do admit I ate a very small amount of tortilla chips with the salsa also, Definitely a recipe that is a keeper.
I will definitely make this again - whether its just for me or for a party. I'm sure I am not the only avocado lover out there, even though I may feel all alone with my love for it in my own home!
