Strawberry Mango Salsa With Thai Flavors


With two ripe mangoes, some Thai basil (or regular basil) a squeeze of fresh lime, a chili pepper for heat, a few strawberries for sweet, a red pepper for crunch, you can whip up this salsa.  It's a tropical and refreshing alongside a piece of locally caught and grilled bluefish. It's good on chicken or with tortilla chips too.
