It’s a bit weird starting a new blog with a bunch of salads, but posting another cupcake or pasta recipe didn’t really work for me since I like neither so I figured “greens” is the way to go. However, don’t get confused because I am not vegetarian, so expect some really greasy stuff later on. Anyway, I really hate these introductions so I’ll just jump in.
Spinach and Mango Salad, who would have thought but the combination with the hot sauce really works. No step by step pictures here, chopping greens is not rocket science so I’ll just post the recipe.
Enjoy!

I knoooow! I loved it myself though I was a bit skeptic at first about the mango and spinach combo.
