Mango Salad

This salad is so good, so refreshing, and a crowd pleaser. Super ripe, sweet mangoes.  Little radiccio leaves for that slightly bitter crunch.  Fresh, savory mozzarella.  And tons of freshly picked basil over homemade basil dressing.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup fresh basil chopped, plus some whole leaves
  • 3 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 T white balsamic vinegar
  • radiccio leaves thinly sliced (I used round Chioggia radiccio)*
  • 2 ripe mangoes peeled and thinly sliced
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese ball sliced into 1/4 in. thick slices
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. For the vinaigrette:  Blend chopped basil, olive oil, and white balsamic vinegar until it is well blended and smooth.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  This can be done ahead of time, even the day before.
  2. To assemble:  Overlap mozzarella, mangoes, radicchio, and basil leaves on plates (all except basil can be pre-sliced ahead of time).  Drizzle with the basil vinaigrette.  Pass around leftover dressing.

Notes

  • Note: If you can't find radiccio leaves, you can use thinly sliced red cabbage.
