Ingredients for Avocado Strawberry Salsa

You'll need a few simple ingredients which will all be available at your local grocery store.

Strawberries - try to use strawberries when they are in season - you will be rewarded with gorgeous sweet and tart flavours!

Avocado - look for one that is ripe but not overly soft.

Jalapeno peppers - use either fresh or bottled, both work well

Red onion

Cilantro (coriander) - use fresh cilantro leaves

Lime juice - use fresh lime juice where possible but bottled also works

Salt and black pepper to taste

And that's it!

How to make Strawberry Avocado Salsa

Chop up the strawberries, jalapeno, red onion and cilantro leaves finely. Cube the avocado.

Add it all to a serving bowl, toss through lime juice and season with salt and black pepper.

Do a little taste test and adjust the flavours accordingly.

Serve immediately.

Pro Tips

I recommend prepping this salsa just before serving. This way, you retain all the wonderful fresh flavours.

Use firm but juicy and sweet strawberries for this salsa, as we do not add any extra sweetener in this recipe. If your strawberries are not sweet at all, you could add a little sweetener - honey, agave, maple syrup or sugar work.

Add more jalapeno if you want your salsa to be spicier.

Serve this salsa at room temperature for best taste.

Serving Suggestion

Serve strawberry avocado salsa up as part of a Mexican feast.

I recommend Tofu Fajitas, these Air Fryer Fajitas or Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadilla.

Add in this Creamy Cilantro Sauce and you're in for a real treat.

It also complements this Mango, Avocado and Black Bean Salad.

Add it to a burrito with veggie filling and this Instant Pot Cilantro, Lime and Coconut Rice.

Or, if you're like me, you'll eat half the bowl with a bag of tortilla chips.

Storage

This fresh strawberry salsa deserves to be eaten immediately! However, you can store it away in the fridge in an airtight container up to 1 day. Bring it to room temperature before serving.

I do not recommend freezing the salsa as the fruit will loose its texture.
