Fresh Orange Avocado Salsa

Perfect to snack on or serve as an appetizer while dinner is getting ready.

What is a Salsa?

Salsa is a common ingredient in Mexican cuisine, usually served as a condiment with tacos. Or it is served as a dip with corn chips.

When everyone thinks of a dip like “Salsa,” normally what comes to mind is the usual “tomato-based” salsa, like our Simple and Easy Spicy Salsa.

But this one is different!

This salsa is made with chopped oranges and avocado instead of tomatoes. It is simple, refreshing, and delicious-tasting!

And, it is AMAZING… to say the least!

Reasons to LOVE this Orange Avocado SALSA…

• It is SO light, giving an amazingly fresh taste in every bite.  
• Not to mention it’s a great super-snack containing “the avocado.”
• This is one irresistible salsa you can serve all year round. 
• It is so different from the traditional salsas we usually make. 
• I love the fact it’s kid-friendly, simple, and refreshing.
• Best of all? It is only 60 calories per serving.  (Love that!) 😉

I made it last week and had some leftovers, so I used my orange avocado salsa over grilled chicken the next day and it was fabulous too!

This salsa is also ideal as a condiment to serve over grilled chicken or fish! YUM!
