I recently saw this recipe for mango salsa made on an episode of The Barefoot Contessa. This particular show was featuring "healthy" recipes for a change, and this version of a mango salsa simmered on the stove top, then finished with fresh herbs sounded quite good. The original recipe had seared tuna steaks served over the salsa, but I chose to mix in some sauted shrimp as well. Also, on the show, Ina Garten uses fresh mint leaves, but I prefer to use a mix of fresh cilantro and basil, just to be different.
