Today marks five years since my first post on Cookie and Kate. This date usually passes by without much fanfare, but five years! My baby’s in kindergarten now. Sniffle. This blog really is my baby. I bought all the ingredients to bake a cake to celebrate, then my dishwasher broke down. I’m not going to wash all those dishes by hand. So, let’s shout happy birthday with this fresh mango salsa recipe! It’s irresistibly sweet and spicy, super simple to make, and outrageously delicious. Plus, it’s so colorful that it almost looks like confetti up-close.

Come to think of it, salsa is actually the perfect anniversary recipe since my first recipe was for salsa. That post broke records for this blog back then. Three comments in one day! Thank you for visiting, commenting and sharing my recipes with your friends and family. I literally wouldn’t have posted more recipes if it weren’t for those comments way back when. You’re the best.

Mango Salsa Ingredients

You’ll need only six basic ingredients to make this easy mango salsa: ripe mangos, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño and lime.

Uses for Mango Salsa

This mango salsa would be fantastic on fish tacos or just about any fresh, Mexican-themed dish, really. I can confirm that it goes well with chips, guacamole and black bean tacos. It was a big hit at my friend’s potluck dinner! You could also serve it on salad or just eat it straight out of the bowl as a salad. It’s that good.
