Refreshing Mango Salsa Salad
July 19, 2016
This salsa salad pairs up nicely with both Mexican & some Seafood dishes. It's so healthy, amazingly easy to prepare & if you have more than 2 people to serve... just double, triple or quadruple the recipe & you can serve the whole gang!
Serves: 2
Ingredients
1 mango, halved, seeded, peeled & cut into short strips
1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
2" length of cucumber, peeled, cut in half lengthwise & thinly sliced (about 1/3 cup)
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
1 small jalapeño, seeded & finely chopped or 2 tsp La Victoria Green Salsa Jalapeña extra hot
Directions
1 Prepped ingredients.
2 Add all the ingredients to a 1.5 quart bowl & toss gently till well combined. Cover & refrigerate 2 to 4 hours to allow ingredients to marry & attain maximum flavor. Serve.
We love to cook with Cilantro! This looks delicious!
Thanks Danielle!
What a great way to prepare a salad! I like mangoes, so this is one of the best thing, I can have with the family.
Glad you think so John, enjoy!
I love mango salsa, and really appreciate the recipe as it is only sold in one store here, and I don’t always go to that store. Thanks!
You’re welcome Abbey, I hope you enjoy it!
Simone, this looks like a great addition to some broiled mahi mahi I have on the docket for later this week. Thanks for the inspiration!

Sounds mighty fine to me. I can imagine serving that up with some barbecued salmon… Thanks for this… 🙂
Oh yes Steve, that sound like a great idea!
This is an ideal summer salad and brings in loads of freshness and citrus flavour. Will try this.

Thanks Ai, I think you’ll really like it
I love to prepare this salade yet I live in Holland and I am not familiar with a product called : cilantro and as I see this product
mentioned in various other delightful receipies I would love to know which ingredient I can use to replace Cilantro……
thanks a million for your kind responds/advise

Hi Caroline & thank you for your comment & inquiry. Cilantro is fresh herb, looks very similar to fresh Parsley & has a strong lemony flavor. If any of your food markets over there in Holland sell fresh herbs, they probably have it in the produce/vegetable area, you might ask someone in the market if they have it.
It can also be purchased as a dried herb in the spice isle of your market, however the flavor of the fresh herb is far superior to the dried version. If you end up using dried Cilantro (in any recipe) use only 1/3 the amount of the fresh cilantro called for in the recipe. Just in case you can’t find either fresh or dried Cilantro, you could add a teaspoon of fresh squeezed lemon juice as a substitute.
