Mangoes take the place of tomatoes, so you don't have to wait until summer to enjoy this much-loved Italian salad.

Ingredient Tip:

The pictured salad was made with gorgeous Tardivo radicchio, but standard Chioggia (round) or Treviso (endive-like) radicchio works just as well.

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
