This is a favorite salsa of mine combining the sweet taste of Mango with the smoky fire of Chipotle peppers. I call it Mardi gras salsa because with the green cilantro red onion and yellow mango you have all the colors of Mardi Gras. If you cannot find fresh tomatillos you can use the canned variety found in Latin markets or the Latin section of most grocery stores. Also if you do not like the tomato flavor of canned Chipotles you can use the dried variety. Just soak in vinegar overnight and you are good to go. I actually like the latter best, but for purposes of simplifying this recipe I called for canned. You can experiment with adding the chilies to find the correct heat level for your personal taste. I like it so you just start to get a sweat when you eat a few bites.

Sometimes simple is better. This very simple authentic salsa recipe is fresh, clean and goes great on everything from scrambled eggs to Baja fish tacos.

5 large ripe red tomatoes seeded finely chopped
