Ingredients
3 medium fresh mango, peeled and diced
¼ medium fresh pineapple, peeled and diced
½ red bell pepper, diced
½ green bell pepper, diced
1 jalapeño pepper, minced
½ medium red onion, diced
5 sprigs fresh cilantro, chopped
to taste fresh lemon juice
to taste garlic salt
to taste ground cumin
to taste red pepper flakes
to taste sea salt
Directions
Carefully peel and dice the mangoes into ½-inch cubes. Trim and peel the pineapple, removing the core, and dice into similar-sized cubes. Place both fruits into a medium mixing bowl.
Dice the red and green bell peppers into small, uniform pieces. Mince the jalapeño pepper finely, removing seeds if you prefer less heat. Dice the red onion into small pieces and chop the fresh cilantro. Add all vegetables to the bowl with the fruit.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the mixture and add garlic salt, cumin, red pepper flakes, and sea salt to taste. Stir gently but thoroughly to combine all ingredients and distribute the seasonings evenly.
Cover the salsa and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify. Give it a gentle stir before serving. Serve chilled with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled fish or poultry.
Comments
Every ingredient is in stock year-round at any major Charlotte grocer—mango and pineapple are commodities, peppers and onions are basics, and cilantro is standard produce. The prep is genuinely 10 minutes once you have a knife and cutting board: dice four items, mix with seasonings and lemon juice. Cost per serving lands around 80 cents, with the pineapple and mango doing most of the lifting; tortilla chips are negligible if you already have them. This reheats poorly and tastes best the same day, but it's an intentional fresh appetizer, not a leftover dish, which fits its design. It's fussy only if you insist on perfect dice, and a family handles it easily as a dip or side.
