The Salsa: the mango avocado salsa brings a bright, fruity contrast to the savory salmon. Creamy avocado and sweet, juicy mango are diced and mixed with diced shallots, zesty lime juice, and a hint of cilantro. This salsa not only adds a splash of color but also a delightful combination of textures and tastes.
