this is delicious and very refreshing. i did cut the oil down to 1 tsp, i usually omit it from salsas, and i substituted fresh basil for the cilantro- the fresh ingredients this time of year are marvelous!

...yet another 5-star review for you!!! = ) Made this tonight with an almost over-ripe mango and an almost under-ripe one....made exactly as written....ok, so I used a red and yellow pepper, not a green one......green would make it prettier I believe.... I made this for dinner tomorrow (either tilapia or scallops)...but it may not last that long!!!!! This stuff is SO good!

This was fabulous! I served it over grilled mahi mahi, and it was a big hit!
