I am such a huge salsa lover. Tomato salsa, peach salsa, salsa verde – all delicious. There is just something about this Mango and Tomato Salsa, though, that is just so, so good! It is so bright and summery! Perfect for as a topping for grilled fish or chicken, or you cut the tomatoes and mangoes into larger chunks and use it as a fresh summer side salad. A scoop of this salsa on a bed of greens and some cheese or grilled chicken is perfect for a light lunch. {And if you’re a taco fan, try this Fresh Mango and Tomato Salsa on my Deliciously Simple Fish Tacos.}
I used my homegrown heirloom tomatoes this time, but any ripe, juicy, tomatoes will work here. If you’re making it when tomatoes are out of season, then store-bought cherry or grape tomatoes are probably your best bet. I’ve noticed that some recipes for mango salsa call for underripe mangoes, but I have to respectfully disagree. I love my mangoes to be at their peak of ripeness – it’s got to be lusciously sweet and juicy for me! If you are using regular mangoes, use one large mango. If you can find those lovely, little champagne mangoes (also called ataulfo) go ahead and use two. For extra-good flavor, make this salsa at least an hour ahead of time, to let all of the flavors come together.
If you try this recipe for Fresh Mango Salsa, I hope you love it. And follow me on Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram so you don’t miss a post.

Key West Chicken Marinade - My Homemade Roots
April 13, 2023 at 7:18 pm[…] And this tropical chicken marinade is one of those recipes for when I’m feeling homesick for sun, sand, and surf.

If it’s summer and I have some ripe tomatoes from the garden, I like to make my Mango and Tomato Fresh Salsa, too. […]
