I made this salsa up while brainstorming ways to use leftover whole cranberry sauce. It's a versatile sweet yet spicy salsa that goes effortlessly from tortilla chips to grilled chicken and beyond. The Mango's give it a hint of sweetness, the cranberries give it color and an updated spin to the flavor, and the jalapenos and onions give it the kick.
Cranberry Mango Salsa
2 mangoes, sliced and diced
8 oz. whole cranberry sauce (1/2 of a 16 oz. can whole cranberry sauce)
1/2 cup sweet yellow onion, diced
1-2 T fresh squeezed lime juice
1 tablespoons cilantro
1 small jalapeno, seeded and chopped fine (or use 2 T canned chilies for less heat)
1 T oil
1 tiny clove minced fresh garlic
salt to taste (about 1/4-1/2 t)
In large bowl, combine and chill before serving with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken. You can add more or less jalapeno or chilies to suite your own personal taste.
"Cranberries and Mango's come together to form the most delicious fruit salsa!"
