Default Delish mango salad

Hi All,
Wanted to share this receipe that I just impressed my sister with. I had a similar version in Canada so thought I'd try adapting it to Cohen's.

- Use half your vegetable allowance on mixed salad (lettuce, spinach, rocket)
- add red onion - chopped finely
- add green capsicum - diced
- add chopped coriander
- add slightly less mango that your allowance (you don't need to use it all)
- toss together and set aside in the fridge for at least 30 mins to allow mango juice to marinate salad

Add your protein,
- I mix prawns and calamari, marinated in lemon juice, coriander and chilli flakes

- place protein on top of salad, serve with crispbreads and voila!!
Easy peasy, refreshing and delicious.
Nance

I also use grilled chicken and make a salad with red onion baby spinach,cucumber, then dice half mango allowence.
Use the other half mango allow, pureed with mayo allowance and curry powder, add a little water, this makes a great dressing for the chicken salad.
Just had for lunch, tastes really naughty....but itsa not.
