Sofia’s Summer Salsa
A dear friend of mine makes this fabulous salsa. I am not sure if it is the incredibly delicious fresh taste of the salsa, the fact that it screams summer or the fact that it reminds me of this friend and her generous soul. Whatever the reason, this salsa is a summer must on your recipe list.
Most often served with tortilla chips, this can also accompany grilled meats or even eaten straight from the bowl – as I often do with the goody bag leftovers Sofia always saves for me.
Ingredient amounts can vary depending on the taste your like to see most in the salsa. I love the mango flavor coupled with cilantro.
- With no added fat, this salsa is packed with antioxidants, fiber and vitamins.
- Cherry Tomatoes are an excellent source of vitamins A and C and a good source of vitamin K and potassium. Tomatoes are widely known for their outstanding antioxidant content, especially the concentration of lycopene.
- Mangoes are high in fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Vitamin E, Potassium, Copper and Vitamin A.
