Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 2 springs of mint about 15 leaves, torn
  • 1 mango
  • 1/3 cup toasted almonds
  • Pinch salt & pepper
  • 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 lime
  • drizzle honey

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place almonds on a shallow baking sheet. Toast almonds for about 3-5 minutes. Be careful not to burn. They will get fragrant as they toast, and that will be your cue that they are close to done. Allow to cool.
  • Mix lettuce and mint in a small bowl.
  • Dice the mango by removing the seed, scoring the fruit into squares and removing from the skin with a spoon. Place on top of lettuce mixture.
  • Top with toasted almonds, a pinch of salt and pepper and red chili flakes.
  • Squeeze over a lime and drizzle with honey.
