This is a simple recipe for salsa that really packs a punch.

The mango brings that touch of sweet, which is balanced by the chipotle chile in adobo sauce and the lime juice.
Of course salsa needs tomatoes, and these fire roasted canned tomatoes add another dimension of flavor.
Add some green onion and a bit of cilantro and you have a fantastic salsa that is great with tortilla chips and used to top burritos or other Mexican recipes.
