Looks like the cheater way is quite common…coz I do it this way too!
Love this pasta salad - sounds so light and easy. And it’s got a citrus factor to it that makes me go weak.

I just bought a whole box of mangoes at Costco last week and wondered what to do with them. This recipe looks perfect!

I cheat, too - all the time.
Who could bear wasting even one inch of a perfect mango? This is such a pretty dish, and that’s a great opening shot!

Thanks for playing Presto Pasta Nights. This dish skips spring and jumps right into summer! Thanks, I need a dose of that.
