Peel and dice the mangoes into bite-sized cubes. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh. Dice the avocado into similar-sized cubes as the mango and add it to the bowl.
Finely slice the red onion into thin strips or small pieces. Add it to the salad bowl.
Chop the cilantro leaves roughly and sprinkle them over the salad ingredients.
In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of one lime, discarding the seeds. Add the olive oil, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until well combined to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the mango, avocado, and onion mixture. Gently toss the salad with a spoon or your hands, being careful not to mash the avocado.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice if needed.
Serve immediately as a side dish or light meal. Optionally, garnish with additional cilantro leaves.
