Today’s recipe is an Easy Sweet & Sour Thai Mango Salad designed to be a delicious light meal on a hot summer’s day. This dish balances the sweetness and warmth of the mango with the acidity of the lime juice and the kick of chili.
I don’t often use fruit in my savoury meals, but this recipe just works so well together with the mango. All the flavors and ingredient combinations work so well together.
When you eat a salad like this one, you just can’t help but just feel good. All the juiciness, the crunch, and the nutrition that your body gets, are just perfect.
Summer is always a godsend to me because I always eat so healthy during the summer. I don’t know what it is, but when summer comes, I eat so healthily. I am talking salads regularly, smoothies, going to the gym, you name it.
It’s just hard for me to make myself eat a salad in the winter, all I want is a curry or a burger and fries haha.
