We’re in the middle of mango season. These sweet, juicy fruits are a real treat. I added them to an Asian-style salad for a refreshing summer dinner. It’s a quick vegetarian meal. Crunchy noodles and peanuts add texture and flavor.

Here are some tips on how to handle a mango. Mangoes continue to ripen after they are picked. Keep them at room temperature until they yield to gentle pressure. To speed up the ripening, place mangoes in a covered bowl or paper bag.

Helpful Hints

  • You can use any type of crunchy noodles. Or try fried noodles from a can.
  • You can use any type of lettuce.
  • Use both the white and green parts of the scallions for full flavor.
