WELLNESS WEDNESDAY – Marvelous Mango Salsa Recipe

Hey Chicks,

In celebration of my upcoming trip to Mexico (and making sure I am eating clean as bathing suit and most likely belly boating beer drinking are around the corner!), I have been addicted to making the easiest, most delicious salsa…it is so good!

Mango Salsa - Chick Style!

Typically I like a tomato salsa but lately I have been switching it up to add a delish new ingredient and color to my food…mango! This recipe is gluten and dairy free as well as vegan friendly but for my meat eating chicks, it is amazing on fish, chicken, pork, seafood. Actually, I am not to embarrassed to admit I just eat it with a spoon as a side 🙂 Try it, you will love it!

CHICK FEED: MARVELOUS MANGO SALSA

  • 1 mango – peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped orange bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup of avocado, chopped
  • 2 tbsp of red onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro (I usually add more as I LOVE cilantro)
  • 1 fresh jalapeno chile pepper, finely chopped (leave seeds in if you like it hot!)
  • 2 tbsp of lime juice from a fresh lime
  • 1 bsp of lemon juice from a fresh lemon
  • Pinch of sea salt

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix all ingrediants together.
  2. Cover and allow to it for a min of 30 minutes before serving at room temperature

Feel free to play with this to suit your tastebuds:  ie omit the jalapeno for less heat, add peaches for a sweeter salsa, or mix in some corn for a more filling dish  – get creative.

If you have any yummy salsa recipes or tips, please share – we always love new ideas 🙂

Make today fabulous,
