Mango Salsa

This quick and easy salsa not only looks pretty, but tastes delicious.  Very refreshing and flavourful on a warm summer's evening.

Recipe:
1 ripened mango
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/3 cup diced red pepper
1/3 cup diced tomatoe
juice of 1/2 lime
freshly ground sea salt
freshly chopped cilantro ~ optional

Remove skin and dice mango into 1/4" pieces.  Chop all other ingredients as per recipe.  Break cilantro by hand and add to taste. Add the juice of 1/2 lime and add salt to taste.  Add a little honey (approx. 1/4 tsp.) if needed.

I really like cilantro but many people aren't so keen on the taste.  Cilantro has a very distinctive flavour and people seem to either like it or not.  If we're having company over, I'll usually omit it unless I know for sure that they like the taste.

Serve with nacho chips.   I have also served the mango salsa in mini phyllo tart shells.  Delicious!

Tip:  you can play around with this recipe depending on the ingredients you have on hand.  Omit the tomatoes if you like or add yellow peppers if you have them.
