Mango pineapple salsa with serrano pepper

I wish that salsa didn’t feel like it had a “season” up here in New York, but I’m inclined to think it does. It lends itself better to warm weather, al fresco dining, and outdoor get togethers.

My favorite salsa

I make this salsa all the time, but especially in the warmer months. I've made it for summer weekends away at my family’s camp, potluck get-togethers, Fourth of July, barbecues, tailgates, and… Cinco de Mayo, which is only three days away (but can’t come soon enough)!
