Have not tried it yet. Watched it being fixed on TV cooking demo.
Looked good and I have not been very successful fixing anything other than breaded fish, so I will try this one for sure.
I have the Walnut oil, but will have to leave off the cilantro...hubby says it tastes like soap to him.
Need to get some mangos & avacodos too

Cindy said you could use olive oil, but she said the walnut oil gave it a great flavor and aroma.

Going to try this today with some chicken wings I had in the freezer I need to use up.
Bought the Mango slices at Sam's and Avacoto at Wal-Mart.
Hope it turns out OK.
Don't have Cilantro and will use some sweet banana peppers and a little chopped jalepeno (no seeds)

This is definitely a weekend recipe.
It actually turned out great but seemed like it took me a while to fix.
Even though neither hubby or I ever ate mangos or avacado before LDL, this salsa was very good.
I thought I had rice wine vinegar but what I had was red wine with garlic. It still was very good.
I think you could use any dressing in it but it only will need a couple tablespoons for a big bowl.
I feel like I am ready now to bake Talapia!
