Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium Unripe mango
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Avocado
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 0.5 medium Jalapeño pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and dice the unripe mango into small cubes, approximately 1/4 inch in size. An unripe mango is preferred for its lower sugar content, aligning with keto guidelines.
Rinse the red bell pepper, remove the seeds and membrane, and dice it into small pieces. Measure out half a cup.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and score the flesh in a grid pattern before scooping it out with a spoon. Add it to your mixing bowl.
Finely chop a quarter cup of red onion and add it to the mixture, providing a sharp, tangy flavor.
Chop two tablespoons of fresh cilantro leaves for a refreshing taste and add them to the bowl.
Slice the jalapeño pepper in half, remove the seeds for a milder salsa, and finely dice half of it. Mix into the salsa for a bit of heat.
Squeeze the juice of about one lime to get two tablespoons of fresh lime juice, and drizzle it over the salsa to add acidity and balance the flavors.
Season the mango salsa with 0.5 teaspoons of salt and 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper to taste.
Gently mix all ingredients together, ensuring the lime juice and seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the salsa.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld, although this step is optional if serving immediately.
