3. Pour in the fresh lime juice and add the salt.

4. Toss everything gently until evenly mixed.

5. Taste and add more salt if needed.

6. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or alongside meat or seafood.

Notes

Use ripe but firm avocados so the salsa stays chunky instead of turning mushy.

Parsley can replace cilantro, although the flavor will change.

Fresh jalapeño gives the best fresh flavor, but jarred pickled jalapeño also works.

Serve the salsa soon after preparation because avocado browns over time. Lime juice helps slow the browning.

For storage, place the salsa in a tightly fitting airtight container with as little air space as possible.

For mango avocado salsa, replace some of the avocado and tomato with chopped mango.

For pineapple avocado salsa, add chopped pineapple.

For avocado shrimp salsa, mix in about 1 pound of cooked, cooled, chopped shrimp.
