Thai Mango Salad

Bright and summery, with tart lime and crunchy peanuts, this is an amazing salad to go with grilled meats.

1/2 cup chopped peanuts
2 firm mangoes (peeled, pitted, and sliced)
1 sweet red pepper
2 carrots, peeled and grated
4 cups mixed greens
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
2 Tbsp chopped fresh mint

Dressing:
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp grated lime rind
2 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp fish sauce or soy sauce
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp minced hot pepper (or 1/4 tsp hot sauce)
1/4 tsp each salt and pepper

Toss the lettuce, mango, red pepper, carrots, green onion, mint, and peanuts together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients together and pour however much you'd like over your salad. I would have preferred a touch less dressing, so next time I won't just dump it all into the bowl.

Enjoy! You can sprinkle more peanuts on top if you wish.
