This salad was inspired by a trip I took to Mexico a few years ago. I was staying in a small town on the coast, and one evening I went to a local restaurant for dinner. I ordered the avocado and mango salsa salad, and it was so delicious that I asked the chef for the recipe. He was happy to share it with me, and I've been making it ever since.
