Remember when I said I dream of mangos, chipotle peppers and bacon?
Well this has two of the three, and to make up for the absence of crispy bacon, it can be served with crunchy chips! So in my eyes, it doesn’t get much better than this.
Sweet mangos, creamy avocados, crunchy red bell peppers, sweet corn and black beans brightened by lime juice and cilantro then spiced to your desired heat with chipotle peppers.
Its fresh, vibrant, delish and simple to make! Just chop, toss, eat!
This salsa delishifies chips, tacos, salads, salmon, nacho chicken (oh yes, I have that one coming for you!), and is even fabulous plain! Patrick was actually eating this straight out of the bowl as he repeatedly said, “This is SO good!”
This Chipotle Mango Salsa is perfect for spring and summer gatherings and perfect for you because you can tailor this salsa to your personal tastes by adding more or less of any of the components. Sometimes I half the recipe and add more mango, because we know how much I LOVE mangoes!
When I devour this Chipotle Mango Salsa, its the one time I want my salsa to chip ratio to be 10-1 with more salsa because “This is SO good!”
