This recipe was quick and super simple to make. I used fresh mango and papaya in my salsa and the flavors came out great. The combination of the sweet and spicy makes this different from the ordinary. If you don't like spicy food, scale back on the pickled jalapenos in this or omit altogether. But if you like some kick, pile them on! I also used a store-bought chicken instead of leftover turkey and again it turned out great.
