Mango Salsa

Yield:  1 1/2 - 2 cups (depending on type of mango used)

Prep Time:  10 minutes
Marinading Time:  1 hour minimum best
(or eat immediately if you can't wait - it will still be wonderful!)

INGREDIENTS
1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
1 mango
1 spring onion or scallion
1 jalapeno
Juice of 1 1/2 limes
If desired, salt to taste
Would it be ok to add avocado and cilantro to make it 7 Ingredient Mango Salsa?  Absolutely.

METHOD
Fresh mango salsa, quick & easy!
To chop the tomatoes, slice them in half lengthwise, then lengthwise down each half, then vertically 3-4 times.  Place in a medium bowl.
To chop the mango, slice them lengthwise along each side of the pit, then crosshatch each half, slicing 3-4 times in each direction.  This allows me to fan out the slice, like the picture above.  From there I slice off the pieces of mango.  Slice off the peel around the pit and salvage what you can of the mango there.  Add to the bowl.
To chop the spring onion or scallion, slice it lengthwise up to the point it gets leafy, then chop into fine dice.  Add to the bowl.
To chop the jalapeno, slice it lengthwise on each side of the center, remove seeds from the halves, slice each half lengthwise 3-4 times, then chop into fine dice.  If all seeds are removed, the salsa shouldn't be spicy.  If you want spice, keep some seeds.  Add to the bowl.
Juice the limes.  Add the juice to the bowl and stir to mix the ingredients well.  
Serve and enjoy!  Salsa is best when it's had at least an hour in the fridge to marinate

Mango salsa is great in a salad, with tortilla chips (preferably baked), in a burrito, taco or other dish, on top of a layered bean dip, or simply with beans.

Will last in a sealed container in the the fridge for up to 3 days.

I use organic ingredients whenever possible for more nutrients, flavor, fewer toxins, and to support organic farmers.  It’s what I want in the world, so I vote with my dollar.  Experiment:  If money that would normally be spent on processed foods went to the best organic, fresh, real food ingredients available, notice if your body prefers the change.  Real food can be quick, easy, and even fun to make, like this recipe.
