- 1 pinch chili powder blend
Instructions
-
Peel and chop the mango and jicama in small, even pieces; sprinkle with a teaspoon of lime juice and reserve.

Halve the avocados and remove the pits; scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Mash coarsely with a fork, then add the remaining tablespoon of lime juice, salt, and garlic and mix. Stir in the scallions.

Recipe Notes
This is a fantastic dish to serve at a party; just double (or triple) the recipe and use a wider bowl or small casserole dish. The crunchy jicama, sweet mango, and creamy avocado are a delicious topping for tostadas and quesadillas, too.
