Mucho Mango Salad



1 ½ ripe mangoes, peeled and cubed
2 T whole milk yogurt
1 T fresh lime juice
1 T orange juice
1 T o.j. concentrate or pineapple concentrate
2 T grated peeled fresh ginger (opt)
½ t fresh coriander
Salt and black pepper
½ c. cubed kiwi
½ c. blueberries
2 c mild baby greens, thick stems removed
2 T chopped macadamia nuts
Lime wedges, for serving

Place about 1/3 of the mango cubes along with the yogurt, lime juice, o.j. concentrate, ginger, if using and coriander in a food processor until smooth. Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste.

Place the remaining mango cubes, kiwi and blueberries in a large salad bowl, pour the dressing on top and toss to coat evenly. Divide the greens between 2 salad plates, top each with half of the mango salad, then sprinkle the macadamia nuts on top. Serve with lime wedges.

I didn’t use blueberries (can we even get them here??) or lime b/c I didn’t have any. I just cut up the kiwi and mango and put them on the lettuce. Then I poured the dressing over and topped w/ macadamia nuts – delicious! I served it alongside Italian chicken lentil soup.

  1. I was frozen blueberries once at tsc but I think the bag (not very big) cost like $20- yikes! I know Karen used to have people bring her dried blueberries
