1. I would recommend for you serve it immediately because over time mango can get soggy and mushy but if you wait 10 minutes, the taste will get better.
2. You can store it for up to 4 days in the refrigerator but I would recommend that you keep each ingredient separately. And cut mangos fresh when you want to eat them.
3. This bean edamame salad can make a great light lunch or dinner.
4. Lemon works in place of lime juice.
5. If you like your salad to be a bit spicy, you can add on a spicy sauce like sriracha.
6. You can try to sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top when you want to serve. It helps to enhance the flavors.
7. It is also nice to eat with bread or a sandwich.
