Mango-a-go-go! Pungent curry and sweet mangoes blend beautifully to create a dish that delivers on taste and nutrition. The marinated grilled chicken breast provides protein, and the cool salsa adds lots of trace minerals. Plus, it’s easy to prep in advance. Just broil or grill the chicken and you’re good-to-go. —Susan E. Levy
