Variations

I love this Fresh Mango Salsa as it is, however it's a super flexible recipe that can be adjusted to your own taste! Try out some of these variations.

Add more veggies. Stir in some sweet corn, red bell pepper, cucumber, or green onion.
Mix in another type of fruit. Pineapple or even strawberries would give it some additional fruity flavors.
Make it spicy. For added spice, double the amount of jalapeños . To make it extra spicy, replace the jalapeño with a habanero pepper.
Choose other great mix-ins. Get creative! Use whatever you have on hand, but other great mix-ins could be black beans, avocado, or Roma tomatoes.

Serving Suggestions

This salsa is so good that I could just eat it as a meal with some tortilla chips! It makes a great snack, appetizer, condiment, or even side dish.

Bring it as a refreshing appetizer with some tortilla chips to a picnic, bbq or cookout, pool party, or cinco de mayo celebration.

Top grilled chicken, fish, tacos, burrito bowls, grain bowls, or salads with it. It's even great mixed into some quinoa or rice for a delicious side dish.
