This is a recipe from Southern Living, eons ago. So easy, something cool to eat and very tasty!
3 T. fresh lime juice
2 T. grapeseed or vegetable oil
1 T. sugar (I only use about 1 tsp. sugar)
2 large firm, but ripe mangoes (2 lbs. total)
2 medium firm-ripe avocados (1 lb. total)
2/3 cup each ~ thinly sliced green onion and chopped cilantro
1 T. minced fresh hot red or green chile (or 1/2 tsp. dried red chile flakes)
1 pound (70 to 110 per lb.) peeled, cooked shrimp
In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, oil, and sugar until sugar dissolves.
Dice mangoes and avocados into 3/4-in. cubes; add to bowl. Add green onion, cilantro, chile, and shrimp. Mix gently. Serve or cover and chill for up to 1 hour.

This salad is so pretty to eat, and you've included all my favorite fruits. Gorgeous photo too!
I would LOVE to have this in front of me......right now!!! BUT....I will be picking up the ingredients and making it tomorrow!! Thank you! Looks delicious!
This is exactly how we love to eat in the summer. My husband even likes cold salads...although he doesn't eat avocados, which are a favorite of mine. I think this looks wonderful.
I want that for my dinner...looks so darn delish! :D
Oh yum, yum! I've been looking for recipes to use all the mangoes ripening on our tree. And this looks so delicious!
