Mangos!!!! ��Salsa!!!! ��What could be more delightful?

I had some mangos on the verge of being overripe so I improvised this salsa. ��It’s a��little spicy, a little sweet, a little smoky, and very fresh. ��You’ll never want to eat store-bought salsa again!

RECIPE

INGREDIENTS:

2 regular��mangos or 4 champagne mangos

One 14 ounce can of organic chopped tomatoes, in their juice, or approximately 1 and 1/4 cups roughly chopped fresh tomatoes

1/3 cup regular or red onion, roughly chopped

1/2 cup cilantro (optional)

2 cloves garlic, peeled

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon cumin

2 tablespoons sugar, maple syrup��or other sweetener

5 drops liquid smoke

1/2 teaspoon chili powder (not red pepper)

1 teaspoon of��red pepper flakes or hot sauce, to taste

1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Peel mangos with a paring knife and cut out their pits. ��Chop the mango flesh roughly and dump it into a blender or food processor. ��Add all other ingredients to the blender.

Pulse a few times, depending on how smooth or chunky you like your salsa.

Makes about 4 – 5 cups salsa.
