Notes
- Use ripe but firm avocados and mangoes to prevent mushiness and maintain the salad’s crisp texture.

- Prepare the salad just before serving to keep vegetables fresh and prevent avocado from browning.
- Consider substituting feta with plant-based cheese for a vegan version or omitting cheese entirely for a lighter dish.
