Now that we have all celebrated Father’s day to the fullest, it’s time to get back on track this week with a healthy recipe. Summer salad’s are yummy, but this is like a salad and a slaw all in one! NO cooking necessary, just chopping, and you can eat it all week. Great for bringing to a picnic or a barbecue when you are in charge of a salad.

1) Julienne bell peppers and cabbage into thin, bitesize, matchsticks.

2) I kept the skin on my mango and cut it into the same thin slices, but you may choose to take the skin off.

3) Chop your cilantro and green onion fine.

4) Toss all vegetables together with olive oil and vinegar, salt and pepper, juice of lime and lemon.

5) Allow to marinate in fridge for at least one hour. Before serving, taste test to see if it needs more salt and pepper and if so, add accordingly.
