Salad Nicoise with Mango Dressing

April 22, 2017 by Liza Agbanlog Leave a Comment

Salad Nicoise with Mango Dressing I decided to make a salad after all the eating that my family did over Easter. This salad is a nice change from our family’s usual salad of Caesar’s or kale. This salad nicoise with mango dressing consists of flaked tuna and vegetables like carrots, French green beans, tomatoes and potatoes. It is garnished with hard boiled eggs and balsamic glaze. Salad Nicoise with Mango Dressing The star of the dish is the smooth and refreshing mango dressing.  I also love the flavor and texture of this healthy salad and complemented it with a plate of ribs. This dish is a keeper and I will be making it again! Enjoy!
