Fiery Citrus Salsa

Story: Do you ever read a recipe and try to imagine the taste of the end product? I do it all the time.. and I try the recipe if I really like what I imagined.. or if I cannot imagine the taste - it intrigues me too much..

This recipe comes from the book that has the Avocado-Red Pepper Salsa recipe. Here's what I was thinking when I read it:

What's not to like? - Summer - good, Combination of green apple and orange - good, Freshness of mint with the spice of red chilies - good..

(Joey Tribbiani: I mean, what's not to like? Custard, good. Jam, good. Meat, good!)

and as it happens in the case of many recipes the taste of this fresh summary salsa was better than what I had imagined..
