mango avocado salsa.

Well, it is pretty snowy here in New England. In Western Maine, we have it pretty good though (except for the extreme wind!). I have heard that our coastal friends have not gotten off lightly in this snow storm.

This snowy day has inspired a little tropical snack to lighten up the mood. This is really good. Avocados and mangoes are in season, so give it a shot...I don't think you will be disappointed.
