Fruit salsas are one of the freshest and mots flavorful things. I love this Mango Salsa recipe because it’s just so incredibly delicious. The way the sweet mango juices mix with the onions, peppers, and other ingredients is so perfect. The fresh mint adds just a hint of coolness, and there’s just enough spice from the jalapenos to add a kick.

This mango salsa recipe is a nice change from regular salsas, and it’s just as versatile. I could eat this all up with tortilla chips, and it makes a great dip to serve at parties or alongside tacos. Yes, put mango salsa on your tacos! You can thank me later.

I made this salsa specifically to use as a topping on my Sangria Chicken recipe, and it is amazing. Try it out on chicken, salmon, or pork. It adds such a fresh flavor!

What is mango salsa good with?

Mango salsa makes a great dip for chips, but it also makes a delicious topping for all kinds of food. Eat it with tortilla chips, eat it on tacos, or eat it on salmon. I especially love it with chicken, which is why I created this Mango Salsa Chicken Recipe.

How long does mango salsa last in the refrigerator?

Homemade mango salsa will last in the refrigerator for up to one week if you store it in an airtight container. However, the juices from the mango will start to leak and form a puddle in the salsa. If you don’t mind juicier salsa, then it’s fine to eat as is. If you plan to use it as a topping, then use a slotted spoon to place the salsa on tacos, chicken, etc. to get rid of the excess juice.

Can you freeze fresh mango salsa?

You can freeze mango salsa if you want to save it for later use. I recommend placing it in freezer-safe bags so that it can lay flat, instead of freezing into large chunks. Store the salsa in serving size portions so you can easily grab, thaw, and use when needed.
