Summers are the best time of the year if you love Mangoes. But at the same time, we do not like to have heavy meals. So this Mango Salad Recipe is the perfect dish for light meals. You can pair it with one or two slices of sourdough bread and make it a completely healthy meal. 

This Mango Salad recipe is easy and versatile. I tried to add all summer produce to make it a more digestive and seasonal recipe like onion, cucumber, coriander leaves, and mint leaves. I added capsicum or bell pepper to give a nice crunch. You can add more vegetables of your choice. 

To enhance its nutritional profile, try to add easily digestible boiled pulses or millets or the available pulses, roasted nuts, and seeds. In this Mango Bean Salad recipe, I have added red cowpea beans, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, and flax seeds. You can add all your favorite or available beans and nuts. You can replace the cooked pulses with some crumbled paneer or tofu. 

The interesting part of this salad recipe is its salad dressing. It is the game-changer that made the salad more juicy and flavorful. This Mango Salad recipe is a delicious combination of sweet, sour, and hot tastes. You can add vinegar of your choice or the same quantity of lemon juice in place of apple cider vinegar. You can even add more fresh herbs and spices to give a nice twist.
