Hello, Everyone!

How is it going and how was your summer? Mine was great, and though, I am sad to see it come to an end, let’s celebrate with a “SUMMER” recipe to carry those happy feelings into the Fall. I give you this Mango Salsa recipe. It is extremely easy and very delicious. The hardest part consist of a little prep work that needs to be done prior to putting everything in a food processor. After that, it’s a piece of cake!

Here is a little back story to this recipe. The first time I made this salsa, I chopped everything by hand. I spent all night dicing the ingredients into perfect little cubes. It made this amazing chunky mango salsa that was Pinterest perfect, but it was a pain in the ass chopping the ingredients into small cubes. After doing that once, I decided there had to be an easier solution. Then, I thought to throw it all in a food processor and call it a day. By all means, if you want to spend time dicing ingredients into little cubes, then go ahead, but I prefer a low maintenance mango salsa.

Frozen Mango

For this salsa, I used frozen mango. It is so much more convenient to keep a bag of frozen mango in your freezer and make salsa whenever you are in the mood (I love Trader Joe’s frozen mango). Living in the Midwest, I find it difficult to get perfectly ripe mangos at the grocery store, and pealing them isn’t fun either. Using frozen mango allows you to make this salsa without having to wait for the mango to ripen, so you can have mango salsa whenever you want.

How to Make Mango Salsa

The goal of this mango salsa is to make your life easier. That means it shouldn’t take long for you to make, so you can enjoy it ASAP.

The time saving kitchen appliance that makes this mango salsa extra easy to make is a food processor. Before blending everything up, you will need to do a little prep.

  1. 1. First prepare the cilantro by washing, drying, and tearing off the leaves.You will first chop the red pepper, green pepper, and red onion into medium sized chunks and throw it into the food processor. Next, measure out th

Paired with tortilla chips, this salsa makes a great snack. It also tastes out of this world topped on your seafood of choice. My personal favorite way to eat it is with tortilla chips from Siete Foods. Their tortilla chips are made of cassava flour (taro root), which is a nutrient rich root vegetable that is native to South America. Cassava is high in vitamin C, Folate, and Potassium. It is also considered a resistant starch, which is beneficial to feed the “good” bacteria in your colon (1)! The cassava flour gives the chips a nice crispy texture and also is an excellent grain-free alternative to traditional tortilla chips. These chips are fried in avocado oil, which is honestly my favorite part. It is so difficult to find chips that are not fried in carcinogenic canola oil or other industrial seed oils. They are a bit pricey because of the high-quality ingredients they are made of, but so worth it.

Going to a social event any time soon? I make this salsa for parties, and it is always a crowd favorite! So make this salsa for yourself, but also share it with friends, because it hits all of your bases. It is easy to make, it is healthy, and it is really tasty. Enjoy!
