Equipment

  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper until emulsified.
  2. Peel and cube the mangoes and place them in a large salad bowl.
  3. Add halved cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro to the bowl.
  4. Halve, pit, and cube the avocados. Add them to the bowl last to minimize oxidation.

Notes

Soak the diced red onion in ice water for 10 minutes before adding to reduce pungency.
