Easy Mango Salsa

Once you make this easy mango salsa, you will be hooked! It has the perfect combination of sweet mango chunks, creamy avocado bites, and fresh tangy lime juice that work together to make every ingredient shine.

The ingredients in this salsa are few but intentional. The mango is the focal point and the other ingredients complement it.

I’ve intentionally omitted tomatoes and bell peppers from this recipe because, to be blunt, it’s not needed. The fresh, sweet, tangy bite of this salsa is perfect just as it is.

And to be honest, you may want to double or even triple the serving size because I could have devoured this bowl just by myself!

Easy Mango Salsa

What do I need to make mango salsa?

To make this recipe, you will need:

• Mango: Use ripe, slightly soft mangoes for this recipe.
• Avocado: Avocado adds creaminess and complements the mango nicely.
• Cilantro: Adds freshness and flavor.
• Red Onion: Finely chopped red onion adds a little spice to the bite and crunch to the salsa.
• Lime Juice: Fresh lime juice is essential because it adds tanginess to counter the sweetness of the mango (which is Uh! so good) and it brings all of the ingredients together to make a cohesive dish.

How do I make this recipe?

The steps are simple and straightforward. Firstly, chop all of the ingredients. Combine them in a bowl, squeeze fresh lime juice on top and stir together.

That’s it! Mango salsa tastes amazing on it’s own, with chips, on grilled chicken, on fish like this Simple Pan Seared Salmon Recipe, or fish tacos like these Pan Seared Fish Tacos With Mango Salsa.

Can I make this salsa ahead of time?

You can most definitely chop up the mango, onion, and cilantro ahead of time and store it in a container in the refrigerator. When you are ready to serve the salsa, then cut up and add the avocado and lime juice just before serving.

How do I store this recipe?

This salsa tastes great freshly made, but if you have any leftovers, you can store it in an airtight container for up to a day or two in the refrigerator. This will run the risk of the avocado browning but the lime juice in the salsa should help prevent that from happening.
