Ingredients
- 1 mango
- 1 avocado
- 2 cup arugula
- 1 red onion
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin seeds roasted
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Combine oil, honey, lime juice and seasonings in a jar and whisk.
- Thinly slice the onion and chop the mango into 1 inch cubes.
- Combine in a bowl with chopped avocado and arugula. Pour the prepared vinaigrette.
- Toss well to combine. Rest for 10 minutes before serving. Top with roasted pumpkin seeds.
To turn this salad into a meal, toss in some drained chickpeas or grilled tofu.
Notes
- Toss the salad gently- you don't want to bruise the avocado.
- If you're worried about the onions being pungent, soak the sliced onions in some ice cold water for a few minutes before using them for the recipe. If you have pickled onions- you can use them too.
- Chill the salad for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to deepen even further.
