Mangoes for Macular

Date:

Here’s a nice, easy, refreshing and absolutely great-for-the-eyes Spring or Summer Supper for two very hungry adults or four who want to add a tuna or chicken salad alongside.. Have it with a loaf of French bread and dip the slices in olive oil, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. It just might call for a cooling Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio and perhaps a lemon sorbet for dessert.

 

Mango and Feta Cheese Salad

2 tsp. Balsamic vinegar

1 Tbls. Olive Oil (EVOO)

1 Cup sliced red onion

2 Cups cubed mango

1 Cup cubed avocado

1 Cup cubed cucumber

1 Cup tomato, cubed or pieces

½ Cup sliced radishes

½ Cup feta cheese, cubed

4 Cups lettuce, shredded into small pieces.

Salt and pepper to taste, but I never think either is necessary.

Blend vinegar and olive oil and whisk in a large bowl. Add onion, mango, avocado, cucumber, tomato and radishes and toss well to coat all ingredients .

Divide lettuce between two dinner plates, spoon salad on top and divide feta over each plate.

In addition to all the Vitamin A and C, there’s plenty of protein in this dish, and about 600 calories.
