INGREDIENT NOTES
- Honey or Ataulfo mangoes- This fruit has a sweet mango taste and wonderful velvety texture. They have a bright golden yellow flesh.
- Tomatoes- I use vine tomatoes in this recipe. But you can also use Roma or cherry tomatoes. Just make sure they're ripe.
- Jalapeños- This amount depends on how much spice you like. 1-2 will give you a mild heat salsa. Make sure to remove the seeds and white membrane.
- Red onions- I love the sweet taste of red onions instead of yellow/white. But feel free to use either one.
- Cilantro- I use both the leaves and stems in this recipe.
- Lime juice- Make sure to use fresh rather than bottled for the best flavor.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Prepare mangoes. First, using a vegetable peeler, peel mangoes from the top to the bottom. Slice each side off the flat pit. Cut as close as possible to get as much flesh off the mango. Next, cut into small cubes.


STEP 2: Cut vegetables. Finely chop red onions, jalapeños, tomatoes and cilantro. Add to mangoes.


STEP 3: Mix ingredients. Add lime juice and season with salt. Toss together until combined.
EXPERT TIPS
Use ripe mangoes. When choosing your mangoes, squeeze gently. A ripe mango will give slightly. Ripe mangoes are more sweeter and will give you a better tasting salsa.
To prevent your salsa from becoming watery, remove the seeds from the tomatoes. Slice the tomato in half and gently squeeze the tomato halves to dislodge the seeds.
Use ripe tomatoes. Choose deeply colored red tomatoes that are firm with a little give.
Devein the jalapeños. The ribs and and seeds carry the most heat. This salsa is not meant to be spicy. Make sure when cutting to remove the seeds as well as the white ribs inside the jalapeños. Wear gloves if you can and if not, make sure to not touch your eyes after cutting.
Let your pico de Gallo sit in order to absorb all the flavors. As it sits, the salt will draw out the juice and flavors from the tomatoes and mangoes.

VARIATIONS
Swap the mangoes for other fruits. Although I love the taste of fresh mangoes, golden pineapple, peaches and watermelon are equally delicious.
Add avocado. Dice up some ripe avocados. They add a creamy texture and beautiful color.
Add some crunch by chopping some jicama or cucumbers. It gives a crisp, refreshing taste.
