Mango Salsa

When I bought my food processor, it came with The Food Processor Bible by Norene Gilletz.  It is AWESOME.  My favorite recipe in the book is the Mango Salsa recipe.  It is really simple and quick, but oh-so-delicious.  Did I mention that it goes beautifully with Copper River Salmon?  

Mango Salsa

1 large ripe mango peeled

1 slice fresh ginger, peeled (sometimes I use garlic instead)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro or parsley (or both)

1/2 small red onion (or 2 green onions)

1/2 red small pepper, cut in chunks

1 jalapeno pepper, cored and seeded

2 Tbsp. fresh basil

1/4 cup fresh lime juice (juice of 2 limes)

2 tsp. olive oil

1 tsp. honey

salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Process ginger/garlic with cilantro or parsley until minced.  Add mango, onion, and peppers.  Process with quick on/off pulses, until coarsely chopped.  Add remaining ingredients and process with quick on/offs to combine.  May be prepared up to a day in advance and refrigerated.  

I might have to make some this weekend....
