Mango Chutney or Salsa
Submitted by Judy Reed on Feb 10, 2011
This chutney is mildly spiced but you can add cayenne to kick it up. Good with all kinds of meat or vegetarian fare especially falafel.

put everything but the mango in a food processor and blend, add mango chunks and pulse for a salsa consistency.
Cook's Notes:
This has just the right spicy sweet taste for a salsa or chutney. Feel free to change it up as you like. It will keep in the refrigerator for about a week but I like it fresh & it never lasts that long.
