Mango Salsa


Did anyone celebrate Cinco de Mayo over the weekend?  I'm not Mexican, but any Holiday that gives me the excuse to celebrate with yummy authentic food, I'm there!  So last Saturday, the fam and I got busy in the kitchen with Mexican Cuisine.  Now, I love red tomato salsa like most, but sometimes you just gotta switch it up a bit with something more light, fresh and sweet.  This Mango Salsa is just that and not only does it taste great with chips, it makes a fabulous topping for fish tacos (which I'll share soon).  This salsa doesn't take much but it adds a whole lot of flavor.  Plus, who doesn't like eating colorful food?!

What you'll need:

1 red mango (peeled, pitted and diced)
2 vine tomatoes (diced)
1/3 red onion (diced)
1/3 cucumber (diced)
Juice from 1 lime
 2 sprigs of cilantro (finely chopped)
Pinch of salt

Mix together the mango, tomatoes, onion, cucumber, fresh lime juice, cilantro and salt.  Serve as dipping salsa or topping.
