MANGO, CORN, AND BLACK BEAN SALSA
My neighbor introduced me to this cool dish that can stand alone as an easy side dish or tastes great with chicken made up as fajitas. This is a recipe that can be altered to use up other fruits you have on hand. I have used a mix of mangoes and peaches to make this, and it would probably taste great with pineapple or other tart fruits, but if you like mangoes as much as I do, you will want to let that flavor dominate. Optional to chill before serving.

Tips:
- Choose ripe mangoes for the best flavor. Look for mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a deep yellow or orange color.
- Use fresh corn kernels for the best results. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Rinse and drain the black beans before using. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the salsa less watery.
- Chop the vegetables and fruits into small pieces so that they are easy to eat. This will also help the salsa to evenly distribute the flavors.
- Taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more lime juice, cilantro, or salt to taste.
- Serve the salsa immediately or chill it for later. The salsa will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Mango corn and black bean salsa is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. This salsa is a great way to use up fresh summer produce and is a healthy and flavorful addition to any meal.
