Happy Cinco de Mayo! Who else loves the fact that the fifth day of May has become a day celebrated with margaritas and amazing food? If you are looking for a last minute sweet and savory, slightly un-traditional way to celebrate, how about a Pineapple Mango Salsa?
Pineapple Mango Salsa
I love a good fruit salsa, especially when it has a bit of spice to it! Fresh mango and pineapple mixed with lime juice, jalapeno, salt and shallot makes for the most mouth watering appetizer, snack, or bite to go with those salty margaritas. And speaking of margaritas, have you tried this recipe yet? So, what are you making this Cinco de Mayo?
Pineapple Mango Salsa
A fresh pineapple and mango salsa perfect for tacos or chips!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe (but firm) mangos

salt. Toss to combine. - Serve with chips.
Notes
I have also made this salsa with just pineapple or just mango and it's delicious! You can also add in one diced avocado which is a nice twist.
