If you want to know how this recipe came to be, a mommy mango and a daddy avocado didn’t fall in love and get married. Sorry to disappoint. No, it just so happened that I was walking the aisles of the grocery store, and I saw a huge display of gorgeous, ripe mangos. Right beside it was a giant display of avocados.

What Readers Are Saying

Picture a giant lightbulb turning on above my head. Ever since that fateful day, I’ve been making mango guacamole about twice a month.

It’s always a crowd-pleasing dip to serve with chips and alongside other condiments like corn salsa and mango pico de gallo.

Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

The ingredients in this recipe are oh so simple, and when mixed together, they really make a fun and exciting spin on classic guacamole. Here’s what you need:

  • Avocado
  • Mango
  • Red Onion
  • Tomato
  • Cilantro
  • Lime
  • Jalapeno (optional)
  • Salt & Pepper

How to Make Mango Guacamole

First, add the mango, lime, and cilantro to your blender or food processor. Gently pulse until it’s well combined but not smooth. Texture is important here.

Next, dice the avocado, tomato, red onion, and jalapeño (if using). Add to a bowl with the salt and pepper.

All that’s left is to add everything together. You can stir or gently mash with a fork a bit. Then season it to taste, adding more salt, pepper, and lime juice if necessary.

Notes and Tips

Like many of my recipes, this is designed to be customized to suit your tastes. If you like your guacamole a little extra spicy, add some more jalapeño. You may like more lime or salt, and that’s great!

One of the best things you can do as a home cook is taste, taste, and taste everything you cook as you go! Adjust accordingly. It’ll help you learn to be a better cook, of course. More importantly, though, it’ll help you become more familiar with your own tastes and guide your cooking process.

Storing leftovers

Transfer the leftover guacamole to an airtight container, cover tightly, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Instructions

  • In your blender or food processor, pulse together the mango, lime juice, 1/2 of the jalapeño (if using), and a large handful of cilantro with the large stems removed until well well combined. There should still be a little texture to it.
  • Cut avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the insides with a large spoon into a bowl. Dice the tomato and red onion and add to avocado mixture. Add salt and pepper and stir.
  • Pour the mango mixture over the avocado mixture. Season to taste, and garnish with cilantro and extra lime, and serve with tortilla or plantain chips and veggies.

Notes

Season to taste: If you like things a little extra spicy, add some more jalapeño. You may like more lime or salt, so taste and make any adjustments you’d like! 
To store leftovers: Transfer the leftover guacamole to an airtight container, cover tightly, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
