Mango and Avocado Salad (after reading Wheat Belly)

 
With many of my friends and family going gluten-free, I thought I better find out what the hype is all about.  I love wheat products, so I didn't want to even think about the possiblity that wheat could be bad for me.  However, I do not want to be ignorant.  So, I read the book Wheat Belly by William Davis and have been doing research into gluten.  I am at the very beginning of learning about it and am not ready to make any drastic decisions.  So far, I can agree that vegetables, cheese, nuts, and real food are the best things to eat.  Will I stop making bread?  Give me some time to think about it, and I'll let you know. 
If you have read Wheat Belly or are gluten-free, I would love to hear your comments below.
This salad recipe was inspired by my gluten-free learning, family, friends, and my love for mangoes.  Enjoy!
