Whip up this delicious Black Bean and Mango Salad! So colorful and fresh with a light vinaigrette, it’s perfect as a side dish or for the main course!
Forget bikini season! Warm weather means it’s salad season! Nothing makes you feel better than eating a vibrant, healthy salad, chock full of amazing flavors and colors! You’ll definitely want to add this Black Bean and Mango salad to your host of black bean recipes. The beans add protein and a solid texture to the salad, while the mangoes add sweet, tropical tones. Add the vinaigrette made with honey and cumin, and you have an amazing taste combination that everyone is sure to love!
First, cut off one side as close to the pit as you can. Then use a knife to slice the flesh into squares, being careful not to cut through the skin. Then you just pick up the mango and holding both ends, press up in the middle on the back until the mango flips inside out – like the picture below.
Now you can carefully slide a knife along the bottom to cut off the squares. Alternately, instead of flipping the mango like this, you can just use a spoon to scoop out the cut flesh.
Then you put everything together to make this gorgeous salad!
Now to make the vinaigrette, you will get a jar with a lid and add all your dressing ingredients and then shake the heck out of that jar! Save the dressing until just before serving the salad. Feel free to garnish with cilantro if desired.
