Mango Salad Dressing

• servings: Servings 1 ½ cups
• active time: 5 mins
• total time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 large mango*

2 limes

2 Tablespoons olive oil

¼ teaspoon coarse sea salt

½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 small clove garlic

¼ cup water

Optional Garnish

2 Tablespoons minced herbs like cilantro

Directions

Add mango flesh, lime zest and juice, olive oil, sea salt, red pepper flakes and garlic zest and water into blender or bowl of food processor. Blend until consistent, creamy texture.

If dressing is too thick, add more water 1 Tablespoon at a time until desired consistency.

Stir in cilantro and minced chili peppers. Taste for seasoning. Add a splash of lime juice for zing, red pepper flakes for spice or salt to bring out the sweet mango flavor.

Notes

MANGO: One extra large mango, two small mangos or about 1 ½ cups of cubed mango.

Make it your own by adding more spice, a drizzle of honey for sweetness or some apple cider vinegar for a mango vinaigrette.

Always dress your salad lightly and pass around extra dressing for those who prefer a creamier salad.
