4-Ingredient Mango Salsa

/in , , /by

I love the idea of salsa, but all the tomatoes and spices are too much for my sensitive tummy. Enter, mango salsa! Game changer, this is so delicious with sweet mango, crunchy red peppers, classic lime and cilantro to tie it all together. I can just sit here and eat this with a spoon but it’s also fabulous over grilled fish and chicken. Fish tacos anyone?

Ingredients:

1 mango, peeled and cut into chunks
3 mini red bell peppers, seeds removed and diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
Juice of 1 small lime
salt and pepper, to taste

 

Method:

1. Peel and chop mango, add to serving bowl.

2. chop red bell peppers, and cilantro then add to bowl.

3. Squeeze fresh lime over salsa then add freshly grinded salt and black pepper, to taste.

4. Stir salsa, taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.

5. Chill then serve.
