Red Beans and Rice Salad image

Mango lends a sweet tropical twist to our Test Kitchen's warm weather version of red beans and rice. Green pepper and onion add crunch to the chilled concoction that's tossed with salsa, then sprinkled with cilantro just before serving.

This salad is a great make-ahead meal. I usually make it the night before and then it's ready to go for lunch the next day.
