This hot tofu bowl with a spicy + sweet #mango dressing is calling my name all summer long! It’s super light but filling and made with simple and fresh ingredients that tie everything together. I used fresh mangos for the dressing because they’re always in season and you can enjoy them all year long and since July 22nd is National Mango Day, I wanted to celebrate! Also using fresh mangos just hits differently because of the sweetness, flavor, taste and smell! Trust me y’all, this is a salad dressing you can use as a dip, marinade or even drizzle on top of fresh fruits & veggies!
