Mango Madness
When I considered what to share, I thought back on my mango-topped Not So Tiny Tres Leches Cake, my mangonada, and using mangos in a fresh salsa to go on top of Fresh Veggie Spring Rolls. But I decided on a super simple preparation that lets that sweet fruit shine: Dragonfruit, Mango, Jicama, & Corn Salad.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dragon fruit, diced (outside reserved for serving)
- 1 cup tomato, diced
- 1 cup mango, diced
- 1 cup roasted corn kernels, removed from cob
- 1 cup jicama, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs (I used a mixture of mint and cilantro)
- 1 to 2 teaspoon jalapeno, diced
- juice from 1 organic lemon
- freshly ground salt
- freshly ground pepper
Procedure
Place all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Toss to coat everything with lemon juice. Let stand for 5 minutes. You can spoon the salad back into the dragon fruit skins or serve it in a small bowl.
That's it for the #SundayFunday mango event. We'll be back next week, sharing recipes with berries. It's berry season! Stay tuned.
Delicious and beautiful salad. Perfect way to enjoy eating a rainbow in the summer heat.

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and colorful salad Camilla. Love all the ingredients in it except jicama.Don't get me wrong, it is just that I've not tasted it. However, if given the opportunity I would definitely love to try it.
