Mango Avocado Salad with Lemon Dressing

Today, a recipe, because I have been painting all day and hey, we all need to eat more fruits and veggies. This salad is another one of those flexible recipes. I have made it with regular salad mix or spinach, used a whole avocado or half (the same with the mango) and once added fresh raspberries too–it was delish. Use it as a guideline and make it work for you. It is so simple that I hesitate calling it a recipe, but it’s a keeper for me and maybe for you too.

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh spinach

1 avocado

1 mango

2 Tbsp finely diced purple onion

Place the spinach on a large plate or in a large bowl. Peel and dice up the mango and avocado and place across the spinach. Sprinkle with the purple onion and serve with lemon dressing.  Serves 1-2.

Lemon Dressing

2/3 cups avocado oil or oil of your choice

juice from one lemon

2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Mix well and serve.
