This salsa is amazing! It’s the ideal summertime appetizer. I especially appreciate the added protein from the black beans. It tastes even better when placed over grilled chicken.

Quite tasty and 5 star worthy. Used pinch of sugar b/c mango was already super ripe and a scant Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, may even omit the vinegar in the future. Served with grilled halibut that was marinated in a simple Italian dressing. Will def make again and again! Is probably also very good with chicken.
My gang loves this one too!!! The lime cilantro dressing that I mentioned on another review, is delicious on these tacos!
made a lot of changes as I didn’t have the bell peppers or fresh cilantro. made up the volume of the recipe with extra corn,black beans and half a poblano pepper. omitted the vinegar as per other reviews. It was fabulous ! everyone loved it and will make it again.
The basis of this recipe is good but the apple cider vinegar was overwhelming, especially with the lime juice. I think one could omit the vinegar entirely. The second time I made this for fish tacos I used lemon juice instead and it was wonderful… 5 star worthy. So for this recipe as is I am rating it 4 stars.
Delicious and great mixed with lettuce for a nice salad!
The apple cider vinegar is too strong (completely overwhelming the lovely mango/other flavors). I was unable to tell if the black beans were a good fit for this recipe, because my palate could not separate the ingredients. I love apple cider vinegar, but the ingredient amounts as written are out-of-balance.
