Expert Tips

This salad can be prepared ahead of time, but refrigerate the dressing separately. When you’re ready to serve, just toss together!
To peel and cut a mango, use a sharp knife to score peel lengthwise into fourths; peel like a banana. Cut peeled mango flesh lengthwise close to both sides of seed; chop flesh.
