One of the great things about this recipe is that it makes a pretty universal fruit salsa recipe. If you don't happen to have access to mangos, or maybe don't have enough on hand to make this recipe feel free to switch it up. Pineapple, peaches and even strawberries make great additions and help compliment the sweetness of the mangos.
If you like your salsa to have more of a spicy kick, try switching out the jalapeño peppers for serrano peppers or even habanero peppers. Just make sure that you are always being careful when preparing your salsa by wearing gloves any time you handle spicy peppers like these.
