This mango salsa would be a great appetizer to start any meal! Grab the crackers or pair this up with fish and youโ€™ve got quite the winning recipe on your hands. You can also add this to my Caribbean Jerk Pork Nachos recipe as well!

If youโ€™re a fan of mangos, thereโ€™s not going to be denying the flavor of this salsa recipe. And once you combine it with the bell pepper, the onion, and the jalapeno, there really isnโ€™t any reason that youโ€™re not going to love this dish.

Iโ€™m also a big fan of getting fresh cilantro for salsa as well because it just reminds me of summer. And when the weather is starting to turn cold, itโ€™s fun to have a salsa recipe that just tastes like warmth! If youโ€™re lucky enough to be able to grow your own herbs, make certain that you plant cilantro because itโ€™s such a flavor enhancer for so many dishes. 

If you have 10 minutes of time, you have time to make this simple salsa recipe. Itโ€™s just that simple and easy to do! 

Spicy Mango Salsa Ingredients

2 medium mangos, peeled and chopped small
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped small
ยฝ medium red onion, diced small
ยฝ medium jalapeรฑo, finely minced
3 T. fresh cilantro, finely chopped
2 T. fresh lime juice
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

How to Make Spicy Mango Salsa

Combine mango, bell pepper, red onion, jalapeรฑo, cilantro, and fresh lime juice in a medium glass or other non-reactive bowl. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine.

Remember too, if you are like me and donโ€™t like the heat from the jalepenos, just decrease the amount or leave out.

Serve immediately or cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to use. Enjoy!

What do you serve with mango salsa?

Chips and crackers are always a winning choice. You can also use this as a topping for salads, fish dishes, and chicken (and turkey) recipes as well. 

How do you know when a mango is ripe?

The easiest way to tell if a mango is ripe is to look at the color of the skin. If the mango is still green, itโ€™s not ripe or ready to eat. However, if itโ€™s a red, purple, and yellow color, this is a good indicator that the mango is ripe and ready to enjoy. 

You can also try the sniff taste and see if you smell sweetness near the end of the stem. If you do, that is another key indicator that the mango is ripe and ready to enjoy.
