Ingredients

• 2 pieces ripe mangoes
• 1 medium piece cucumber
• 1 medium piece red bell pepper
• 0.5 medium piece red onion
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the mangoes, then cut the flesh into small, bite-sized cubes. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel the cucumber and slice it into thin rounds or half-moons, depending on preference. Add to the bowl with the mangoes.

Step 3

Remove the seeds and core from the red bell pepper, then dice it into small cubes. Add to the bowl.

Step 4

Finely dice half of a red onion and add it to the salad mixture for a mild, tangy flavor.

Step 5

Chop the fresh cilantro leaves roughly and mix them in with the other ingredients in the bowl.

Step 6

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until evenly coated.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding a pinch of salt or a drizzle of honey to suit your preference.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a light side dish, or let the salad sit in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
