Mango Salsa

Mango Salsa
This past week an Arctic Blast has whipping through Delaware, and it has been so c-o-l-d.  While I know other parts of the country have it worse, but here on the East Coast, we don't usually see temperatures that low.   They even had a 2-hour delay for most of the area schools because the temperature was only 10F in the morning.

I decided that if I couldn't get the weather to cooperate, I'd bring some color and a little bit of heat back in the form of this bright, citrusy treat.  If you're anything like me, you're looking at this Mango Salsa and longing for the warmer nights of Summer.  The bright flavors and combination of ingredients balance the heat of the Jalepenos perfectly.  Served with warmed tortilla chips or alongside a chicken breast marinated in my honey chipotle sauce, you can't go wrong.    This recipe can't get any easier and it only takes ten minutes to whip up.

Now, I need other recipes to help us warm up!  If you have any ideas, respond in the comments!
