- 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped jalapeño
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
Directions
Combine mango, honeydew melon, pineapple, kiwifruit, bell pepper and onion in a large bowl and mix well.

Secret Tip
To chop a mango easily, peel the skin from one-half of it, then make several vertical slices and then several horizontal slices to cut the flesh into cubes. Then simply cut the cubes from the seed. Repeat with the other side.
