- Make the Mango Salsa: In a bowl, mix diced mango, red onion, jalapeño (if using), cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Stir gently and adjust seasoning to taste.
- Prepare the Lime-Chili Sauce: Whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Bowls: Start with a bed of cooked rice. Top with grilled shrimp, sliced avocado, and generous spoonfuls of mango salsa. Drizzle with the lime-chili sauce and garnish with extra cilantro or lime wedges, if desired.

- Meal Prep Friendly: Store components separately and assemble when ready to eat for the best texture and flavor.
- Protein Swap: Not a shrimp fan? Try grilled chicken, tofu, or salmon!
