Notes
Add diced avocado for a creamy variation.
Mix in diced pineapple or peaches for extra sweetness.
Leave some jalapeño seeds in or add a pinch of cayenne for more heat.

Use a mix of lime and fresh orange juice for additional citrus flavor.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and stir before serving.
Do not freeze, as the texture of the fruit and vegetables will deteriorate.
