When you spend time working on your garden, it is nice to invite others to enjoy it with you. Even though we have a great patio, sometimes it is fun to set a table on the lawn to mix things up, and take advantage of different parts of your outdoor spaces.

This dinner was based around mango’s, which are in season, and available fresh and juicy everywhere. I just chose flavors that complimented the sweet fruit, and the fresh salmon. It was meant to be another of my “easy to prepare and serve” meals that I really favor in the summer. Almost every part of the meal can be prepared a day ahead of time, and tossed together at the last minute.
