Free Healthy Recipe - Avocado, Mango and Pinenut salad
The Food CoachDairy free, Low carbohydrate, Wheat Free
It's simple and exquisite - the flavours of avocado and mango work so well. Combined with pinenuts, rumoured to be aphrodisiacs in ancient Greece and you create the ultimate seductress - a healthy entree for lovers. Choose slightly underripe mangos when making this dish. Avocado and pinenuts are both good sources of magnesium useful for relieving symptoms of PMT.
Method
Dry roast the pinenuts in a small frying pan with no oil.
Combine the olive oil, lemon and mustard in a small jar. Slice the mango and avocado and arrange on small entree plates.
Drizzle with dressing and top with pinenuts.
Note: As pinenuts are high in polyunsaturated fats they can turn rancid easily. Buy small packs and use them quickly. Store them in a sealed packet in the refrigerator.
