hi all..

I cant remember where I found this. But I love Mangos, so I make it

It's delicious and perfect for a summer time lunch.

It's also low in fat and fairly filling. Hope you enjoy it.

Makes 2 servings or Lunch Salad

For mango salad:

1 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar

1 tablespoons fresh lime juice

½ (4-inch-long) fresh hot red chile, thinly sliced, including seeds (optional)

1 medium shallot, thinly sliced

2 Tbl chopped fresh cilantro

1 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

1 firm-ripe mangoes, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced

3-4 cups torn spring lettuce

1 oz Feta Cheese

For shrimp:

16 medium sized shrimp (1/2 lb), shelled and devained.

1 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 teaspoons ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

Cayenne pepper

Accompaniment: lime wedges and Feta cheese if you like

Make mango salad:

Whisk together brown sugar and lime juice in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved, then whisk in red chile, shallot, cilantro, and mint. Add mangoes, tossing gently.

Prepare grill or heat a fry pan sprayed with cooking spray
Whisk together oil, jalapeño, cumin, salt, and dash of cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Marinate shrimp for about 15-20 minutes. Place on skewers and Grill or Saute in fry pan until done. 3-5 min.

Place the torn lettuce in 2 salad bowls. Top with the Mango salad mixture and then the grilled shrimp and Feta.
