This Mango Salsa recipe is full of fresh flavor, and a perfect appetizer or side made with fresh diced mango, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and lime. Enjoy with chips or on top of nachos.
Mango Salsa is refreshing, delicious, and healthy too. Mangos are a great source of vitamins A and C, B6, iron, calcium, zinc, folate, copper, and vitamin E.
All you need are five simple ingredients: fresh mango, onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, and lime. That’s it. This tropical salsa can be made ahead and refrigerated until you are ready to serve. It is great for potlucks, pool parties, and picnics.
Ingredients
- Fresh Mangoes:Â Use the best quality mangoes that are sweet, juicy, and non-fibrous. I personally like the Ataulfo, Kent, or Keitt varieties in the USA. Dice the mangoes into your desired size.
- Onion:Â Use red onions for the best flavor.
- Cilantro:Â use freshly chopped cilantro leaves.
- Jalapeño: Finely chopped. Use as per your spice level.
- Lime Juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice is always better than bottled in this recipe.
- Salt: for seasoning
How to Make Mango Salsa

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
How to Serve Mango Salsa
1. Serve it with your favorite chips, or top it on tacos, quinoa salad, and more!
2. Make Mango Salsa & Cream Cheese Appetizer
- Lay RITZ or Monaco crackers on a serving plate.
- Spread some cream cheese on the top of each cracker.
- Then top each cracker with fresh mango salsa. Serve immediately.
Variations
- You can replace cilantro with fresh parsley.
- You can also use ¼ cup of bell pepper instead of jalapeno for a milder salsa.
- Add diced avocado to this, to make avocado mango salsa.
- Mango salsa stays fresh for up to 2 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I do not recommend freezing.
