Mango-Avocado Salad


This salad is fit for a party on the patio with whatever is on the barbecue or by itself for a filling lunch. The salad can also be presented in a number of ways: the salad mixture can be mounded onto butter lettuce leaves, mixed with baby greens, or for an especially rich treat, inside an avocado half.
