2. Thai Green Mango Salad
The wonderful thing about this Thai green mango salad is the amazing mix of textures.
Green mango is very popular in Thai cuisine. It adds a tasty tangy and nutty flavor to this dish.
That crunchy fruit is mixed with bean sprouts, unsweetened coconut, bean sprouts, and spring onions for a texture explosion.
Then, all those flavorful ingredients are tossed together in a refreshing lime dressing. Simply delish!

This recipe is inspired by Som Tam, a popular salad in Thailand using unripe green papaya.
To make this dish a little sweeter, ripe mango takes the place of green papaya.
The spiciness, saltiness, and sweetness of the dressing beautifully tie everything together. Be warned, this salad is seriously addictive!

11. Jicama Mango Salad with Cilantro and Lime
Need a crisp, fresh side salad to go with your Asian and Mexican dishes? Look no further than this jicama mango salad with cilantro and lime.
Jicama is a firm root vegetable that tastes like a less sweet apple.
Its crunchy texture and mild flavor work perfectly with the sweetness of the mango.
