- 1 mango peeled, diced
- 1 cup corn fresh or tinned
- ½ large red bell pepper diced
- ¼ cup cilantro diced
- 1 green onion diced, or white onion
- 2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 garlic clove minced or finely diced, optional
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper optional
Optional: add the corn to a dry skillet (without oil) and bring to a medium heat. Saute for 4-5 minutes, stirring often. Allow to cool.
Combine the corn, mango, red bell pepper, cilantro, green onion, apple cider vinegar and garlic in your serving bowl and stir to mix through. Season with salt and black pepper to taste preference.
- Heating the corn is optional. For a faster salsa, simply combine the fresh corn with the other ingredients.
- Dice the fruit and vegetables into roughly similar sizes.
- Adjust the amount of cilantro and garlic to taste preference.
- If citrus works for you (likely not my low histamine readers), then you can swap the apple cider vinegar for lime juice.
