Mango Salsa Ingredients
Mangoes – Fresh ripe mangoes work best, but frozen mangoes do work well in this recipe, too. If using frozen, thaw and chop. Peppers – Red bell peppers add crunch and freshness, while jalapenos add a little kick. Onion – Onion adds a savory element to this salsa. I love red onion in this recipe, but sweet white onion works too. Lime – Fresh lime juice adds tanginess and brightness to the salsa. Seasoning – A sprinkle of salt, a dash of cumin, and a drizzle of olive oil add a flavorful touch.
How to Make Mango Salsa
Tips & Variations
Add avocados, (just before serving) garlic, pineapple, or tomatoes for an extra burst of flavor. Be sure to let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes for flavors to meld. Chop all the ingredients uniformly so they’re easily scoopable! Add or substitute equal amounts of fresh pineapple or fresh peaches for a different twist. This salsa is best when it’s cold so be sure to store in the refrigerator before serving.
Storing Leftovers
Mango salsa will last about 4 days in the refrigerator. Before serving again, stir and refresh the flavors by adding a little splash of lime juice and salt and pepper. This recipe is easy to make but requires a lot of chopping! I love this chopper to show off all the bright colors of this mango salsa and to dice the fruit and veggies quickly and uniformly. It works great for tomatoes (for bruschetta), onions, peppers, and many other fruits and veggies!
Can You Freeze Mango Salsa?
Mango salsa can be frozen by putting it in an airtight container or zippered bag that is labeled for up to about 3 months. However, it will not be as firm once it is thawed. Drain the extra liquid and add some new diced mangos or fruit like pineapple or peach for a whole new salsa. Did your family love this Fresh Mango Salsa?
