Notes

you probably won’t need all the fillings, The beetroot and avocado layer should be thick layers and the final mango layer should be quite thin, as its quiet sweet.
Just be aware, the longer the stack stays  sitting around, the more the beetroot will leak out of the bottom.
If you put them in the fridge make sure they come to  room temperature to serve.
Optionals –
for the beetroot you could use sriracha to dress the beetroot for a fiery kick.
The mango salsa you could use a little tamarind paste to mix in.
