Chicken & Cheese Quesadilla with Mango Salsa

The star of this dish is the fresh mango salsa...I mean the chicken and cheese filled tortillas are delicious, but the salsa makes the dish for sure. I have really enjoyed incorporating all the fresh summer fruits into meals now that summer is here...nothing against you, butternut squash, but winter is over. 

I won't bother with the recipe for the quesadilla (just whole wheat tortillas, cheese, grilled chicken and seasonings), the salsa is what you want:

Mango Salsa
2 ripe mangos, peeled and cubed off the pit
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
salt and pepper to taste
2-3 scallions, chopped (for garnish)


Combine all but the scallions in a small bowl and refrigerate for a few hours before serving. Top with chopped scallions to serve.
