Mango Salsa

"This is one of my summer favorites. I usually serve atop steamed chicken breasts with rice, but then we eat the rest of the salsa by itself!"

  1. This is really really good! I didn't use the sugar but added a little bit of fresh ground black pepper. I served it on some chicken that I had marinated in some of that bottled stuff (hawiian flavor) and then grilled. Very fresh and summery tasting. I ate the left overs PLAIN! Thanks for a new passion!
     
  2. This is soooo good. I added some olive oil and some pineapple and some salt and pepper - but no sugar. Also a clove of garlic. I used just one jalepeno. I served it with grilled teriayki chicken and steamed rice and brocolli.
     
  3. Great! I used red bell peppers in lieu of jalapenos, as this salsa was accompanying a really spicy dish (which it complemented wonderfully, by the way!) and I didn't use any sugar. Thanks for a deliciously easy salsa!
     
  4. I only deviated by using serrano peppers because jalepenos are not much hotter than bell peppers.
     
  5. This salsa is amazing! The best I've ever made from scratch. It's sweet, it's spicy, it's colorful. Perfect served with chips, but I imagine it's great with fish or tacos. Instead of sugar, I added some salt and pepper. I also added a drizzle of olive oil as another reviewer suggested.

  2. Substituted a pinch of salt for the sugar. Perfect!
     
  3. Nice salsa, I made just 1/3 of the recipe ( 1 mango ) because there are just two of us. Even at that it made quite a lot. Went very nicely on our hamburgers; it added a nice zing. Instead of cilantro I use parsley and added a touch of splenda instead of sugar. Also added 1 tablespoon of seasoned oil. We enjoyed it and will probably make it again.
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Having worked restaurant for many years, I continue to pursue my love of cooking. Maybe that has something to do with being forced to cook for large get togethers as a child! :) As a single working mom who's also in school, most of the recipes I use now are great quickies that I hope to pass to my daughter the day she sets foot in the kitchen.
