This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Del Monte, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #makemangosalsa http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV
Chips and salsa is a given pretty much every day of the week around this house, not just because my husband and kids are Hispanic, but because chips and salsa is just plain delicious! There is no getting around that, not that I’d want to, ha! There are so many ways to make salsa, and so many ingredient options, the flavor is always a little different each time, and this two-minute mango salsa is no different! Flavor! Spice! Much yum!
When it comes to mango salsa, I like it super chunky, almost like a pico de gallo, so to make this two-minute version, I needed to get a little creative to get the texture I wanted. And I totally succeeded, because this stuff is awesome.
In addition to the beautiful Del Monte Diced Mangos, I grabbed a can of their diced tomatoes, as well as black beans, and green chiles. And since I was shopping at Walmart, I hit up the produce department to grab a package of diced red onion (how awesome is that, seriously? No tears!), as well as an avocado and cilantro. There was literally almost no work involved. Just dicing the avocado and tearing some cilantro. Otherwise I just tossed it all in a bowl, threw down some chips, and watched everyone go crazy trying to get the first bite.
Vivi won, by the way. She’s a badass salsa-lover.
This easy two-minute salsa is already on the menu for our Super Bowl party, and I can’t wait to watch a great game! But since I have four kids who will likely grow bored at some point, I’m keeping a DVD of The Book Of Life handy to entertain the kids once they’ve decided they’ve had enough of football! I’m planning smarter, not harder, this year.
Ready for a flavor explosion?

I made a Mango Salsa during the summer and it entailed lots of cutting and peeling. I like your version much better! Thanks so much for linking to the This Is How We Roll Thursday link party! I can’t wait to see what you share next week!

So you’ve just rocked my world! THEY MAKE CANNED MANGOS! I’ve always steered away from making anything with mangos because they are like THE WORST fruit to cut. Ya, ya, they have froze, but you’ve got to thaw and blah blah blah. This looks awesome1 So trying it out! Thank you for sharing on Found & Foraged!

Anna @ Sunny Side Ups says
Aw-YUM!! I bet just one bite of this salsa would taste like a giant party in my mouth! I know your serving size says it’s made for six, but I don’t think it would go that far at my house…I’d hoard the bowl! 🙂
