Recipe For Mango Salsa

This is a very easy mango salsa recipe! The easiest! But don’t be fooled by its simplicity, because this fresh mango salsa is absolutely delicious!

I love me some salsa. Tomato, mango, peach, collard greens, pineapple, jalapeno, avocado, corn, you name it, I’ve turned it into salsa! I love eating salsa with my tacos, pita pocket sandwiches, enchiladas, or simply with tortilla chips.

Anytime I have some leftover tortillas from a taco feast, I like to turn them into chips. I cut the tortillas into triangles, toss them with a bit of olive oil and whatever spices I’m in the mood for that day, salt, pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, italian seasoning and then I bake them at 375ºF for 5-8 minutes until crispy. And to me, there’s no better way to eat delicious homemade tortilla chips than with salsa!

I really like to pair this mango salsa with pork tacos or fish tacos. They compliment each other so well. The mango makes the pork or fish shine and vice-versa.

I like to use habanero for this salsa, but if you don’t like a lot of heat, sub in any other pepper, even sweet ones.

This recipe takes about 10 minutes to put together, so I recommend assembling it close to the time you are planning on eating it. Leftovers will be fine in the refrigerator for a day or two, but fresh is best. And that’s what this recipe for mango salsa is all about: freshness. You don’t even need the ripest of all mangoes to make this, slightly under ripe mangoes will do just fine.

I used to be of the opinion that sweet and savory shouldn’t mix. I would cringe at the thought of putting strawberries in a savory salad. I know what you must be thinking, what kind of a monster was I? I have to say, it was this mango salsa that won me over, years ago, when I was starting my cooking obsession. I decided I was going to give every flavor combination a chance. Even weird ones or exotic foods. If I wanted to know everything there is to know about food, I had to try everything there is to try. I got to say, it wasn’t even that hard. The first time I made this, I served it with a pork taco and it won me over. It was love at first bite.
