Ingredients

Endive
2 heads, separated into leaves
Mango

Roasted peanuts
1/3 cup, chopped
Sriracha sauce
2 tablespoons
Honey
1 tablespoon
Lime juice
2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, gently toss together the separated endive leaves, diced mango, sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the freshly squeezed lime juice, honey, Sriracha sauce, and salt until well combined and the honey is fully dissolved to create a zesty dressing.
