Mango and Red Pepper Salad

Last weekend my friend Heather invited me over to make dinner with her and watch a movie. In the past, we've made some absolutely AMAZING meals together, using lots of fresh ingredients from her garden. Sad to say, there have been some nights below freezing, and her garden is no more. But that didn't stop us from putting together and incredibly tasty and healthy meal for two!

Heather made a Thai coconut chicken soup with mushrooms, red pepper, and cilantro. It was so delicious! I can't wait to make it myself. I made a fresh salad with mango, red pepper, and red onion. It ended up pairing really well with the soup, and the chardonnay! It's not a girls' night without wine, right?

As we always do, we missed the first part of the movie because we were raving about the food.
