More Mangos
Next, I tried adding mango to a salad. Great combination with the sweet strawberries, crunchy pistachios and slightly bitter greens. I used olive oil and romaine lettuce. So good, I'm having it again today!
Double-Mango Salad
The fresh, fruity flavors of this salad pair well with a spicy shrimp, chicken, or pork dish. In place of pistachios, you could substitute toasted almonds, pine nuts, macadamia nuts, or hazelnuts.
1 cup cubed peeled ripe mango, divided
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 cups gourmet salad greens
1/2 cup sliced strawberries
1 tablespoon chopped pistachios
Place 3/4 cup mango in a food processor; process until finely chopped. Add lime juice, oil, coriander, and salt; process until smooth, scraping sides of bowl once.
Combine 1/4 cup mango, greens, and strawberries in a large bowl. Divide salad between 2 serving dishes, and sprinkle with nuts. Serve with dressing.
Yield: 2 servings (serving size: 1 1/2 cups)
