Thai Mango Salad with Peanut Dressing is a green salad that is bursting with fresh Thai flavors and bright colors. It’s great on its own, or as an accompaniment to Thai main dishes.
Recipe yields 2 large salads or 4 side salads.
The salad features butter lettuce (feel free to substitute your favorite green instead), sweet diced mango, red bell pepper, and jalapeño. Then tossed all of it in an addictive, spicy peanut dressing. This salad would make a great side salad for any of other Thai recipes, or could pass as a light dinner. For more substance, just add some crispy baked tofu.
