INGREDIENTS • 1 mango (about 1 cup chopped) • 1 red bell pepper (about 1 cup chopped) • 2 Roma tomatoes • ¼ red onion (about ½ cup chopped) • 1 jalapeno pepper • ½ cup cilantro • 2 small limes, juice of both and zest of 1 (about ¼ cup juice and 1 teaspoon zest) • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (more to taste) • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt (more to taste) DIRECTIONS • Start by chopping the ingredients. For the mangos, since it’ll be diced into small pieces, I find it’s easiest to peel it first. Then slice the flesh away from the pit and dice it into small bite sized pieces. About ¼ inch is ideal for pico so you get a little mango in every bite. • For the tomatoes, cut them in half first and remove the seeds. I do this my using my finger to get most of the seeds and gel-like liquid around them out. Then dice the tomatoes. • For the jalapeno, remove the pulp and seeds and dice it. If you like more spice, leave the seeds in. Dice the red onion and red bell pepper and chop the cilantro.  • In a mixing bowl, combine everything. Add the fresh lime zest and juice, garlic powder + salt. • Toss to combine. Let it sit for about 5 minutes and add more salt to taste. TIPS • Chop the vegetables into relatively even sized pieces so you get the flavor of everything in each bite. • Scoop out most of the seeds from the tomato. This will make it taste better and stay fresh longer. • If you’re making this in advance, wait to add the cilantro right before serving. • Let it rest for around 15 minutes in the fridge before serving. STORAGE • Refrigerator - store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.  NUTRITION (per 0.5 cup serving, makes ~3 cups or 6 servings total) • 40 cal, 10g carb, 2g fiber, 1g protein Follow for healthy recipes! 😊 Celebrate the small wins.
