How to make strawberry mango salsa

  1. Prep ahead of time. Chop and dice the jalapeño, red onion and cilantro up to 24 hours in advance.
  2. Combine. Combine the strawberries, mango, jalapeño, onion, cilantro, honey and lime juice, tossing gently.
  3. Let the flavors meld. Let the salsa sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to marry or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  4. Serve. Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed, and serve with tortilla chips.

Strawberry Mango Salsa: Frequently Asked Questions

Is this spicy?

There is a mild kick of heat with the jalapeño pepper depending on whether or not the inner white ribs (pith) and seeds have been removed. For less heat, remove the pith and seeds, or omit the pepper entirely.

Can I add avocado?

Yes! Diced avocado is an excellent addition here, stirring just before serving so it does not turn brown or mushy.

Can I make this ahead of time?

This salsa is best when served immediately, but the jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro can be chopped ahead of time and stored in airtight containers 24 hours in advance.

How can I store leftovers?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days, draining the excess liquid if the strawberries release too much juice.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup diced strawberries
  • ¾ cup diced mango
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
  • 2 tablespoons diced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 teaspoons honey, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine strawberries, mango, jalapeño, onion, cilantro, honey and lime juice.
  • Let sit for 10-15 minutes for the flavors to blend.

Notes

  • Prep ahead of time. Save time by prepping and dicing the jalapeño, red onion and cilantro 1 day prior and storing them in airtight containers in the fridge.
  • Skip the frozen berries. Always use fresh strawberries as frozen strawberries will become mushy when thawed and mixed.
  • Cut in uniform size. Cut all of the salsa ingredients in similar size pieces for a consistent bite.
  • Make it mild or spicy. For milder flavors, omit the jalapeño pepper. For more heat, keep the inner white ribs intact when mincing.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice. While bottled lime juice can work in a pinch, freshly squeezed is ideal here for its vibrant, stronger flavors.
  • Chill in the fridge. If time permits, let the salsa chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour, allowing the flavors to blend and marry.
