Hello Steemit

What’s your favorite summer fruits?
Aside from water melon, ripe mango will always be my favorite and the Filipino mango float is one of my favorite mango dessert.

Anyway, since I started my vegetarian/vegan journey, I’ve been inventing my own salad recipe and this is one of my favorite. It’s made with diced avocadoes, ripe mango, cucumber, chopped herb and spices. I make it either for lunch or snack. It smells and taste so refreshing.

Serve and enjoy!
Using the avocado halves as a salad bowl instead of throwing it away create more appetizing presentation and I saved some plates to wash after (lol).

A lovely salad indeed my friend.
I eat half an avo every day and when mangoes are in season we also get tuck into them.
Will bear this salad in mind in the next season.
Blessings!

Mango is one of my favorite fruits! I don't eat avocados that often but when I do, I enjoy them a lot! Combining these two with cucumber sounds like an interesting combination worth a try..

Good luck with the contest! Thank you for sharing your recipe and I'm looking forward to seeing more of them :)
