1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/2 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt to taste ( didn't add)
Ground black pepper to taste ( didn't add)
1 mango, diced (about 1 cup)
1 avocado, diced (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro- finely chopped
Sprinkle of sunflower seeds
Directions:
In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic, orange juice, lime juice, orange zest, honey and olive oil.
Taste and adjust seasonings.
Add mango and avocado.
Toss to combine.
Garnish with sunflower seeds
Serve immediately.
Linda this looks so good. Your pictures of the foods are just wonderful. Tho I don't eat these foods, I am sure going to pass on the recipe
ReplyDeleteI love both mangoes and avocados.......have made salsa with both and really enjoyed it. I bet this salad is delicious......what a nice change using orange juice with the lime juice. Looking forward to giving this a try.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! :)
I love Mangos but not avacados . Yes the pictures of the foods are so clear .
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious and I love avocados and think I'll try this. I may have to use frozen mangos though. Thanks for posting this.
ReplyDeleteWe tried this Sunday and we both loved it. Must make it again soon. Fresh mangos would have been way better, because the thawed ones were cut into too big a chunks and kind of hard. I used salad almonds because I did not have sunflower seeds but everything else was the same. I like a touch of salt and pepper on my avocados so I seasoned them and then added them to the rest.
ReplyDeleteI love mangos and love avocados but have never tried them together...your salad looks great and I'll be trying it for sure.
