About This Recipe

Our amber salsa recipe is based on frozen mango or pineapple cubes which are available all-year round, or you can use fresh as we do in the video. 


We’re matching that fruity element of the salsa with orange or red peppers which are high in vitamin C, high in fibre and beta carotene (the precursor of vitamin A), as well as folic acid and vitamin B. Buy organic where possible as peppers are one of the top foods where pesticide residues can be found, so wash well if buying non-organic. 


If using pineapple in this salsa recipe, you are adding in more vitamin C and the mineral manganese, as well as a substance called bromelain which aids digestion and reduces inflammation to add more immune supporting nutrients.  The apple cider vinegar included here can also aid with digestion.
