Cucumber Mango Salsa
Description
This salsa combines evenly diced ripe mango and small English cucumber pieces with finely chopped red onion, cilantro, and minced jalapeño for a touch of heat. A squeeze of fresh lime juice brightens the flavors while black pepper adds mild warmth. All ingredients are gently stirred together to blend their distinct textures and flavors.
The resulting salsa offers a crisp, juicy, and slightly spicy profile with a nice balance of sweetness from the mango and freshness from the cucumber and herbs. Its simple preparation preserves the natural textures.
Serve this salsa with tortilla chips as a snack or appetizer, spoon it on tacos or burritos for a fresh contrast, or stir it into cooked grains like quinoa or millet for added brightness and texture.
