Ingredients To Make Avocado Salsa

Tomato — I like to use Roma tomatoes with the seeds removed.

Red onion — For crunch and a pop of color.

Jalapeños — You can remove the seeds or leave them in for extra heat.

Avocado (pit removed) — I look for avocados that are just ripe, but not mushy. They should hold their shape when you mix everything.

Lime — I always use fresh lime juice over bottled. It makes such a significant impact! You can also use lemon juice if you prefer.

Olive oil — I recommend using quality olive oil with a good flavor.

Cilantro — I love fresh cilantro! If you’re not a fan, you can use fresh parsley instead.

Salt — To bring all the flavors together.

Tortilla chips — Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

How can I quickly ripen avocados?

If your avocados aren’t quite ready, try the paper bag trick. Put the avocados in a paper bag with an apple, then seal it and leave it on your counter for about a day. If you have more time, you can also let them ripen in your fruit bowl until they’re good to go.

What To Serve with Avocado Salsa

Tacos: I love to load up carne asada tacos and taco salad with avocado salsa.

Seafood: The flavors in this recipe are perfect with air fryer cod or grilled shrimp.

Other ideas: This salsa is also great with grilled chicken and rice, taco stuffed sweet potatoes, chicken enchiladas, burrito bowls, nachos or chimichurri chicken chopped salad.

Ingredients 
 

  • 5 Roma tomatoes seeded and diced
  • ½ small red onion chopped
  • 1 jalapeno seeded and chopped
  • 4 avocados peeled, cored, and diced
  • 2 limes juiced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/3 cup cilantro leaves chopped
  • Salt to taste
  • Tortillas chip to serve

Instructions 

  • In a medium bowl, place the tomato, red onion, jalapeno, avocado, lime juice, olive oil and cilantro. Stir to combine.
  • Season to taste and serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • Remember to remove the seed of the tomatoes to remove excess moisture. This will keep the avocado salsa nice and fresh.
  • I like to dice the avocados into bite-sized pieces, so they keep their shape. If you dice them too small, they can mash up when you mix everything in.
  • Don’t use too ripe avocado, otherwise your salsa will be mushy.
  • If you’re a fan of garlic, you can add one or two cloves of garlic in there.
  • Peel the avocado by scooping out the flesh with a spoon.
  • My family finishes this salsa in about 10 minutes! But if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 to 2 days. I typically press a layer of plastic wrap over the salsa to keep it from turning brown. A squeeze of lemon or lime juice on top will also help!
