A refreshing and vibrant salad combining the sweetness of mango with the crunch of cucumber, perfect for summer days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 large cucumber, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional for a spicy kick)

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing all the ingredients. Peel and dice the mango, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Finely chop the red onion and cilantro.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and cilantro.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey (if using), salt, black pepper, olive oil, and chili powder (if you like a spicy flavor).
  4. Pour the dressing over the mango-cucumber mixture in the large bowl. Toss everything gently until well combined and the dressing evenly coats the salad ingredients.
  5. Taste the salad and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice, honey, salt, or pepper as desired.
  6. Let the salad rest in the fridge for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
  7. Serve chilled and enjoy as a refreshing side dish or light snack!

Notes

  • For a vegan option, omit the honey or replace it with agave syrup.
  • This salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.
