Salmon With Chili-Mango Salsa
"A refreshing twist to salmon that is always a hit with guests. After stumbling across this recipe in the Sept. 2000 issue of Bon Appetit I made a few adjustments to the recipe to meet my tastes. I have found the salsa best if made the day before but it is also great made right before grilling the salmon. I like to serve this with cumin flavored rice and grilled zucchini, onion and tomatoes. I have found this recipe a easy way to combine the wonderful flavor and healthy benefits of adding fish to my eating plan."

I love this salsa! It was easy to make, looked great with all the colours, and my guest raved about it. I actually used it with the maple glazed salmon also listed on the site and it was delicious. I tried the leftover salsa with chicken the next day - awesome! Definitely a keeper - thanks for posting.

<p>I'm a displaced Hoosier now living in the Land of Lincoln. A nurse by occupation and lover of life by choice. I began cooking with my Grandmother on the farm where she had hired hands to feed a hearty breakfast and lunch. I joined 4H as soon as I was old enough and loved compeating at the county fair. I spent 2 years in Germany after high school living in a small town. The neighbor ladies took me under their wings and taught me to make many local favorites. Not exactly a pet peeve but close: I find it sad to look in the grocery carts while shopping and see them full of frozen meals and junk foods. <br /> I have scaled down my collection of cookbooks as I found some I never used. The favorites I kept include Southern Living 1979-1990. I also use many recipes from Bert Green cookbooks.</p>
