This is the best salsa I have ever had. I was seriously eating it by the spoonful! I'm not a big salsa fan unless they are "sweet" salsas - like mango, pineapple, and peach - because I don't care for spicy things, but this recipe was absolutely perfect. It was sweet, bursting with flavor, and just a little bit spicy. If you prefer spicy salsa, then you can just add more jalapenos! It's that easy. The amount of flavor in this salsa is just amazing. To bite into that creaminess of the avocado, the bite of the pepper, the sweetness of the mango, and - of course - the garlic and cilantro were to die for. It's nothing like store bought salsa, which is ketchupy and gross. This salsa is swimming with chunks of sweet mango (the mango was definitely my favorite part) and tossed with creamy avocado, tomato and cilantro. It's incredibly refreshing. The blend of flavors was magnificant. I made this salsa for my daddy for Father's Day, since he's always begging me to make him a salsa, and I'm so happy I finally did! I served this with steak fahitas (but I recommend serving this over white fish or fish tacos) and my whole family gobbled so much of this up even before the fajitas were ready.

This is a sacred family recipe. I almost didn't post it because it's so special to us. I honestly had to BEG my mom to let me post this. This is the hamburger dip written by my Grandma Louise. She created it herself and got it perfect after many attempts. Now, let me tell you: I'm really picky when it comes to a good burger. But this hamburger dip is the bomb! The cream cheese makes it so creamy and filled with cheesy deliciousness. But the most special, secret ingredient is the sugar, which helps bring out the flavors of all the other ingredients. This is definitely one of my favorite dips, and it's a great dish to have at parties or other events because it will always be eaten completely. We usually make it for big get-togethers with friends when we watch the super bowl, and there's never any leftovers.
