From past several months I have been following lots of blogs. These blogs inspired me to be healthy. They post very nice healthy recipe as well as nice motivational thoughts and exercises. From past several years I have tried to be as healthy as I can. I try to go to exercise and try to eat healthy foods. I love to experiment in cooking. If i see any new recipe I like to try it. Luckily my family supports me by eating my cooked food. Sometimes it turns out good and sometimes bad.
I would highly recommend skinnytaste for those who is looking into healthy eating. Gina's recipe are easy and they turn out as they are shown. I tried her recipe today of this Salad. I was little skeptical about making it as I was making this salad for my in laws. My mother in law loves to try new food but my father in law has a very fix taste He will try it but I know when he likes it or when he does not like it. If he does not like it than he adds tomato ketchup to it and eat it. But today he loved it. He asked for second serving with no Ketchup.. So I can definitely say that this was a good salad.
I made few changes to the original recipe.

Mix all the ingredient of the dressing and put it aside.
Add cut mango (Cut it in strips) to the cabbage carrot mixture. (Do it when you are ready to eat)
Add the dressing and sprinkle peanut and sesame seed on top. I did not add sesame seed as i did not have it but without it also it tasted good.
Mix the dressing and mango only when you are ready to eat. Otherwise it gets soggy.
It was a delicious salad and I made lasagna soup from my friends recipe http://lifescribblesovercoffee.wordpress.com/2013/01/28/vegetarian-lasagna-soup/
Together it was a complete meal.
