Summer and Salsa Recipes go hand and hand. Fresh salsa and tortilla chips are a great picnic food, perfect for cookouts, and a light munchie anytime! This recipe is not your traditional fresh salsa but is just as delicious and flavorful. The mango and pineapple offer just the right amount of sweet to offset the heat of the jalapeno peppers. The homemade baked corn tortilla chips are super easy to make and taste so much better than store bought options.
