This Avocado Mango Salad with arugula, toasted pine nuts, and a tangy honey-lime dressing is the ultimate refreshing and healthy dish. Packed with creamy avocado, sweet mango, and crunchy pine nuts, it’s a perfect side for summer gatherings or a light lunch. The honey-lime dressing adds a zesty touch to this vibrant and colorful salad.
Dressing:
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
Salt and pepper to taste
Salad:
5 oz arugula
1 ripe mango, peeled, pit removed, diced
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced
¼ cup red onions, thinly sliced
⅓ cup pine nuts, toasted
In a medium bowl or mason jar, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, and honey until emulsified.
In a large serving bowl, combine arugula, diced mango, avocado, and red onions.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad (you don’t need to use all of it), and toss to combine.
Top with toasted pine nuts and season with salt and pepper to taste.
For a protein boost, you can add grilled shrimp, chicken, or salmon.
Swap pine nuts for toasted pumpkin seeds if needed.
Add avocado and dressing just before serving to avoid browning.
