Mango Salsa

Chop everything, let it sit in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes for the flavors to meld. Limes and cilantro are critical. Don't try to substitute lemons.

  • 1 1/2 T jalapeno minced
  • 1/2 red pepper chopped
  • 1/3 c red onion minced
  • Juice and zest of 1 - 2 limes
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro stems and leaves chopped, save a little for garnish
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Notes

You can increase or decrease the amount of any of the veggies depending on how spicy you want it. Don't be afraid of the jalapeno, you need a little - it will be flat without it. Bottled lime juice is preferable to using lemons - it's just a completely different dip without the lime. Throw in a little ground pepper and/or a tsp. or two of cumin for a smokier, earthier flavor.
