I didn't use the brown sugar. Used stevia instead. Added powdered ginger because I didn't have ginger flavored soy sauce.

I was surprised it isn't the kind of salad I'd usually try, but it is really good.

Hope you are all better with mangos & avacados than me. Had never peeled & chopped either before today.

It's from Sparkpeople's recipes.

Thanks! This looks great. I have everything but the mango, so I think I'll go get one and make this to go with my Tuna-stuffed tomatoes tonight! A perfect summer dinner!
