Mango Salsa
With the weather warming up and seasons growing close to change; it is fun to pull out old recipes that excite my tastebuds. While I usually do not discriminate against any type of salsa; sweet/spicy salsas tend to be my favorite. It gives Mexican foods a nice contrast to the usually salty flavors. Pineapple salsa and mango salsa are some of my most favorites. I’ve also made kiwi salsa, which is a fun variation to the typical yellow tropical fruit salsas.
Another reason I like this salsa recipe is there are no added oils. Other than a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and granulated sugar, there are no added condiments to taint or add extra fats to.
Mango Salsa
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh mango roughly chopped
- ¼ cup shallot diced
- 1 large jalapeno diced
- ⅓ cup cilantro chopped
- 3 Tbsp lime juice fresh
- 1 tsp granulated sugar
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Combine the mango, jalapeno, shallot, and cilantro in a bowl and mix to combine. Add in the sugar and lime juice, toss ingredients again. Lastly, add in salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
Mango salsa is espeically tasty on tacos, and alone with tortilla chips. If you’d like to exchange pineapple or kiwi for the mango, it would be an even trade.
