Black Bean, Tropical Fruit, and Queso Blanco Salsa

My talented friend chef Douglas Rodriguez gave me the inspiration for this salsa one night at a fantastic party he threw. Queso blanco, a staple of Latin cuisine, is uniquely textured, simply yet assertively flavored, and quite pleasant to nibble. In this recipe, the cheese balances the acidity of the orange and mango. A no-brainer with chips, queso blanco salsa is a great accompaniment to grilled chicken breasts as well. You can prepare the dressing up to a day before you assemble the salsa. And the salsa is also a good day-after leftover—assuming there is any left over.

Yield: MAKES 4 CUPS
