Mango Black Bean Salsa
A wonderful salsa recipe. Also excellent with seafood and fish. Its most popular use is as a chip dip, but also used as a sauce on meats.

2 mangoes, peeled and cut lengthwise around the pit into slices
1½ cups cooked and drained black beans (or canned and drained)

2 scallions, green and white parts, sliced
½ jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and minced
½ tablespoon minced fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice (1/2 large lime)

Grill the mango slices over direct medium heat for 5 minutes. (Use a grilling basket or set the slices on a metal rack placed at 90 degrees to the grilling rack.) Remove, dice, and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the beans, bell pepper, scallions, chile, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt.
