MANGO AND ASPARAGUS CHOPPED SALAD IN AVOCADO CUPS

 


I just wanted to share this super easy and delicious recipe that is one of my favorites.  Of course though, finding the perfect avocado for making these cups isn't always easy... watch out for bruises on the outside, but check out this helpful tip that I found below on Facebook.  So, I'll just get right to it.

MANGO AND ASPARAGUS CHOPPED SALAD IN AVOCADO CUPS


1/2 cup chopped mango
1/2 cup chopped raw asparagus - I usually discard the rough ends
1/2 cup chopped crimini mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/2 clove garlic, chopped
1 lemon, juice of
Chilli powder, salt and pepper to taste
Optional - 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1-2 avocado to make the cups.

Directions


Chop everything together except the avocado and put in it into a medium size blow. Flavor with lemon, salt and pepper (evoo optional).  Cut your avocado in half, pit and peel and place on your plate.  Top it with the chopped salad and sprinkle with chilli powder.  So easy!!

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
