I have started liking salads for a variety of reasons and a couple of main reasons being they are easy to put together and they are healthy too. Of course “healthy” is going to vary based on the person’s perspective. This salad was put together last summer, I know it was ages back and it got pushed down the list of drafts until now. If mango and beans are an excellent combo, throwing an avocado made it more magical.
It is healthy, protein packed and a wonderful way to use up the ripe mangoes during the summer. It was a light evening snack for us and we enjoyed it. Off to the recipe.
