Salad
Tip: Speed up the preparation of your avocados with a dedicated avocado slicer. It slices, pits, and scoops in one go, making the task faster and safer, while also providing neat, consistent slices for your salad.
Tip: After slicing the mango and avocado, use a food processor to quickly combine any additional ingredients (like herbs or seasonings) into the salad. This method ensures a uniform mix in just a few pulses.
Tip: Use a handheld citrus juicer to get the most juice out of your lime with minimal effort. It’s the quickest way to extract fresh lime juice for dressing without any seeds!
For the best texture and flavor, pick ripe avocados that yield gently to pressure, ensuring a creamy consistency that pairs well with the sweetness of mangoes.
Pick mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a rich aroma. A ripe mango adds a natural sweetness that complements the creamy avocado perfectly.
Dress the salad with a squeeze of lime or lemon juice to enhance the flavors and add a zesty balance to the creamy avocado and sweet mango.
Add fresh greens like spinach or arugula to give the salad a crisp texture and a pop of color, making it more vibrant and nutritious.
For an added crunch, consider sprinkling the salad with toasted almonds, sunflower seeds, or walnuts, which provide a delightful contrast to the soft fruit.
Consider a light dressing made with olive oil, honey, and a touch of balsamic vinegar. This simple vinaigrette adds depth to the salad without overpowering the delicate flavors.
