Strawberry Mango Salad

I had some new moms over for a infant playdate this week and we had such a great time... well I did.  For some reason Marlow was so out of it and took three 2 hour naps the next day.  I think I need to work her up to "party like a rockstar" status. 

We usually just have light snacks at these playdates because honestly your hands aren't free that often.  I thought I'd try my luck at actually making something... well sort of.  I'm not a cook... but I am lucky because my husband is. 

I've been really missing our summer Mexico trips where I would sip my Mango Tango all day. I made this simple salad to sample some of my favorite tropical drink flavors...minus the fun alcohol.

Strawberry Mango Salad

1 pint of strawberries cut in quarters
2 mangoes cubed
1 lime
tsp of sugar or a splash of orange juice
mint leaves

Prep the berries and mangoes. Add juice from one lime and zest.  Sugar or OJ to taste. Mint to garnish and add a little oomph... so tasty. Mint didn't make it in the photo :(




Special thanks to my hubby for my new hibiscus trees in our lawn.
