Mango Salsa Recipe

I was raised in South Florida, where we enjoyed plenty of fresh tropical fruits. While this salsa is good for snacking with chips, I'll often serve it on fresh fish, which is plentiful here, too.

Tip

Seeding Tomatoes

Summer is the perfect time of year to enjoy fresh juicy tomatoes in all types of recipes. It's usually not necessary to remove the seeds from tomatoes before using. But for some recipes, seeding the tomatoes can improve the dish's appearance or eliminate excess moisture. For example, it's not important to seed tomatoes when preparing a tossed salad. But it's nice to remove the seeds when making creamy tomato soup to ensure a smooth texture. And using seeded tomatoes when assembling a casserole can prevent it from becoming watery. To remove the seeds from a tomato, cut it in half horizontally and remove the stem. Holding a tomato half over a bowl or sink, scrape out seeds with a small spoon or squeeze the tomato to force out the seeds. Then slice or dice as directed in the recipe.

I modified this recipe a bit (a habit of mine) & it turned out awesome. I added a can of pineapple tidbits (big can), a big can of mild green, diced chiles and 2 green onions, diced. No babies here so I made my own mango baby food and used that, instead of store bought.I also used diced green, red, yellow and orange peppers (not quite 1/4 cup of each). It made a huge batch, so I gave some to my neighbors. It turned out very good. I sliced, and cooked, some sweet italian sausage links to serve with the salsa. Yummy!  Stick out tongue

We love this recipe in our home, and look forward to making it every summer. It is so refreshing. It is always a HIT at any get together.

I make my mango salso without baby food, bell peppers, olive oil, sugar, or lime peel. I just use mango (and/or peach), tomato, jalepeno pepper, garlic (or powder), onion, cilantro, and fresh lime juice.
