Introduction

One of my boyfriend's favorite salads. I put everything, but the kitchen sink, into it. Use your imagination and add it! If it's crunchy and flavorful - it'll probably be GREAT in it! We add olives sometimes too, and fruit, and avodaco, and cucumbers...the list is endless! ENJOY! One of my boyfriend's favorite salads. I put everything, but the kitchen sink, into it.

Ingredients

    Salad:
    1-2 stalks of Broccoli (nutritional info is for one)
    Baby Greens (approx 4 cups)
    Artichoke hearts, marinated in oil (about 3.5 oz)
    3 oz. almonds
    1 C sliced red peppers
    1/3 C dried cranberries

    Dressing:
    1 C sliced mango
    1 C orange slices, juiced
    1/2 avocado, cubed
    2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
    3 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

Chop broccoli and add to large bowl with salad greens, artichoke hearts, red peppers, almonds, and cranberries.

To Make Dressing:
Slice 1 C mango and add to blender. Add 1 C orange slices, squeezing the juice over the mango before adding the fruit. Add the avocado, garlic, and the vinegar. Blend until creamy and smooth.

Pour over salad (you don't have to use all the dressing - also works as a marinade for meats).

Toss together and enjoy!

For best results - make the dressing ahead of time and store in fridge to allow flavors to truly blend together. I usually make it the night before I make the salad.
