--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   8       oz           Vermicelli or other fine
                        Strand pasta
   1 3/4   c            Mangoes, diced
     3/4   c            Sweet red peppers, diced
     1/2   c            Red onions, diced
     1/2   c            Sweet green peppers, diced
   3       tb           Olive oil
   3       tb           Lemon juice
   2       ts           Crushed garlic
     1/2   c            Corander or parsley, chopped

  Cook pasta in boiling water according to package instruction or until
  firm to the bite.  Rinse with cold water.  Drain and set aside.

  In bowl of food processor, combine mangoes, and all other ingredients.
  Process on and off just until finely diced.  Pour over pasta; serve at
  room temperature.

  TIP: Use a ripe sweet mango for a more intense flavor.  If unripe,
  mangoes are unpleasantly sour.  I have used papaya instead of mangoes.

  Make ahead: Prepare salsa early in the day and refrigerate. (This
  will also allow it to develop more flavor.)  Pour over pasta just
  before serving.
