Servings:

Place the mango pit side down and cut down along each side of the pit. Scoop out the mango from each half with a spoon, slice and dice it. I like to eat the mango flesh around the pit as a chef's treat, but you can definitely cut any leftover mango sitting around the pit.
Add the mango to a bowl and cut and then cube the avocado. I like to make a cut around the middle of the avocado making a slit, I then twist it open and gently remove the pit. You can remove the pit by pressing it out with your hands or gently insert a knife in the middle and twist.
Slice and dice one jalapeño and add the diced avocado & jalapeño to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients and stir. To make tortilla chips simply cut 3 small flour tortillas into triangles, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray them with oil spray and add a touch of salt.
If you don’t have any avocado oil spray you can simply drizzle a little bit of oil on top. Bake them for 10 minutes at 400F (200C) or until crispy and golden. Enjoy this salsa with tortilla chips, on tacos, or as a side.

Herbs: I use cilantro in this recipe, but you can feel free to use herbs such as parsley, mint, basil, or chives. You can even create your own blend.
Add-ins: Include more veggies by incorporating some sweet corn (fresh or roasted), diced tomatoes, or finely diced red onion.
Protein: Mix in some rinsed and drained black beans for added protein.
No spice: To reduce the heat, feel free to use 1/4 of a red bell pepper instead of jalapeño. It's milder and sweeter than its green cousin, plus it adds a bright pop of color.
Citrus: If you don't have any limes on hand, you can use lemon. It will still add that bright, citrusy component and keep your avocado from turning brown.
