It seems like everyone has caught the mango fever.
Everywhere I go, there are mango smoothies, mango yogurt, mango salads, mango salsa… Looks like mango has been shacking up with pretty much everyone.
Not that I’m complaining, of course. I mean, recently I have been making mango smoothies, mango green smoothies, cherry mango coffee cakes, and lime chicken and mango wrap to name a few. I have caught the mango fever, and have mixed my famous chipotle egg salad sandwich with that delicious fruit. I mean, I should make the most of having mango around while it’s in season, right?
I’m glad I did. This sandwich was everything I could ever want in a sandwich, and more. The smokey flavor or the chipotle powder compliments the sweet taste of mango beautifully, and the bell peppers add a delicious crunch to the mix.
This is the perfect picnic basket recipe, and tastes like summer in a sandwich. Put this egg salad on your favorite bread and you’re good to go.

I am right there on the mango bandwagon. I absolutely love it in my smoothies and on yogurt or just fresh. I haven't made many savory things with it but this salad sounds delicious!
This sounds like a refreshing salad with mangoes in them! Love them mangoes 🙂
I grew up without being able to have mango due to my mom's allergies, so now I try to use it as often as I can!
What a sweet twist to egg salad!
Such an easy & tempting way to enjoy mangoes !! Loved this one 🙂
Cathleen, that sounds yummy!
