Instructions

Notes
Mangoes can be found year-round, but their peak season is typically between May and September. To get the best flavor and texture, choose a mango that is yellow, orange, or red, gives slightly when pressed, and has a sweet, fruity scent.
Dice each ingredient evenly. Small, uniform pieces ensure that each bite has a perfect mix of flavors.
Homemade pico de gallo tastes even better after sitting for 15-30 minutes because it allows the flavors to meld.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, though the mango and tomatoes may release moisture over time. Freezing isn’t recommended, as it will alter the texture and flavor.
