Mango, Avocado, and Salt Fish Salad Recipe

Mango, Avocado, and Salt fish recipe is SUPER versatile! Use it as a perfect appetizer, spread it between two pieces of bread for a sandwich, or better yet as a casserole! No matter which way you choose to make it you will love the simplicity and flavors.

Salt fish is available at most supermarkets. Just make sure you follow the directions and soak your salt fish. I was able to find the Isla Brisa brand at Costco, Jetro, Publix, and SaveALot.  You can also check out the social media of your choice for more information and recipes: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest or Instagram #saltfish #bacalao #IslaBrisa

I cannot stand mango. The texture and flavor are repulsive to me. So why did I add mango, well its quite easy: my family loves it. I actually loved the sauce to this recipe even with my severe dislike of mango. I could eat it in place of mayonnaise.
