Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients: Chop the ripe mango into small cubes, peel and dice the cucumber into similar-sized cubes, quarter the cherry tomatoes, mince the shallot finely, and chop the fresh cilantro or parsley.
Combine the Salad Components: In a medium mixing or serving bowl, add the mango cubes, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, minced shallot, and chopped cilantro or parsley. Toss gently to mix all fresh ingredients evenly.
Add the Dressing: Pour in the lime juice, add the optional maple syrup for extra sweetness if desired, and sprinkle the sea salt over the salad. Toss the salad thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Adjust Flavors and Serve: Taste the salad and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lime juice for brightness, maple syrup for sweetness, or salt for balance. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
