Escape to the Tropics with Creamy Coconut Mango Salad

Introducing: Creamy Coconut Mango Salad

Today, I’m excited to share with you a refreshing and tropical salad recipe that perfectly combines the creaminess of coconut with the sweetness of ripe mango. This dish is ideal for summer gatherings, picnics, or any time you’re craving a burst of exotic flavors. Let’s dive into how to create this unique and vibrant salad!

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe mangoes (diced)
• 200ml coconut cream
• 100g mixed greens (arugula, spinach, and kale)
• 1 cucumber (sliced)
• 1/2 red onion (thinly sliced)
• A handful of fresh mint leaves
• 2 tablespoons of lime juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• knife
• cutting board
• mixing bowl
• whisk

To start, prepare all your ingredients by dicing the mangoes, slicing the cucumber and red onion, and washing the greens and mint leaves. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut cream, lime juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Next, add the mixed greens, diced mangoes, sliced cucumber, red onion, and mint leaves to the bowl with the coconut dressing. Gently toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated with the creamy coconut dressing.

Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the greens to slightly wilt. This will help enhance the overall taste and texture of the dish.

Once the salad has chilled, give it a final toss and serve it in a large salad bowl or portion it out onto individual plates. The Creamy Coconut Mango Salad is now ready to be enjoyed!

This tropical salad weighs approximately 800 grams in total, serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 200 grams. Each serving is estimated to have around 180 calories.

One special tip for making this salad even more delicious is to sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes on top just before serving. This adds a crunchy texture and extra coconut flavor that elevates the dish to a whole new level!
