Mango & Radish Salad With Lime Dressing

Submitted by Vegetarian Hostess

"This salad encompasses the radishes that are elongated with pink and white roots. It is eaten raw as an appetizer alone or chopped into a salad. I had this recipe in mind for the radishes, which looked so fresh and appetizing when I eyed it the Martha Stewart Living, May 2010 edition. The lime dressing and zest along with the sugar really brings out the flavors to a perfect ensemble. A sweet citrusy and fresh salad that is so crunchy, your head just might shake. I was not the biggest fan of radishes at first, because it tends to be a little too spicy and bitter for me, but this was not the case at all. The radishes were a welcome addition with the mango that offsets any bitterness. The bright colors of this salad represents the vibrant flavors."
