Description
A fresh, vibrant Avocado Mango Salad featuring creamy avocado, sweet mango, and a tangy lime-date syrup dressing with a hint of garlic and cilantro. Perfect as a light, refreshing side dish or snack.
Ingredients
Dressing
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- 1 tablespoon date syrup
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
Salad
- 2 medium mangoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 medium avocados, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (coriander), finely chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, combine the avocado oil, lime juice, date syrup, and minced garlic. Whisk well until all ingredients are fully blended to create a flavorful dressing.
- Combine salad ingredients: In a large bowl, add the cubed mango, cubed avocado, and finely chopped red onion. Pour the prepared dressing over these ingredients and gently toss to ensure everything is evenly coated without mashing the avocado and mango.
- Add cilantro and serve: Stir in the fresh chopped cilantro to add a bright, herbal note. Serve immediately to enjoy the salad at its freshest and creamiest texture.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm mangoes and avocados to avoid a mushy salad.
- The date syrup adds natural sweetness; substitute with honey or maple syrup if desired.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes or diced jalapeño.
- This salad is best enjoyed fresh to maintain texture and color.
- Can be served as a side salad or a light snack.
