Notes
Use fresh, ripe ingredients. Using fresh, ripe fruits and vegetables, especially when they're in season, makes this mango corn salsa so flavorful and delicious.
Chop the vegetables evenly. You want to chop all of the vegetables to be roughly the same size so your salsa blends together nicely.
Storage: Store salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Salsa can be frozen for up to 3 months, but the texture and flavor may change.
