  2. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture to add flavor and brightness.
  3. Sprinkle salt over the mixture to taste, starting with a little and adding more if necessary.
  4. Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula, being careful not to mash the mango too much.
  5. Taste your salsa before serving and adjust the salt or lime juice based on your preference.
Serving
  1. Enjoy the salsa right away or let it sit in the fridge for about 30 minutes to meld the flavors.

Notes

For substitutions, ripe mangos can be replaced with peaches or pineapples. Prepare close to serving time for the freshest taste. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for about 2-3 days.
