SPINACH, AVOCADO & MANGO SALAD
I really enjoy this salad; I think it has a lovely balance of sweetness and bitterness, softness and crunch - and the colours are lovely too. This will make four side salads, or two meal salads.

Steps:
- Wash, pick over and dry the spinach.
- Wash, dry and tear up the radicchio.
- Wash and slice the radishes.
- Peel and slice the mango and avocado.
- (Actually it is easiest to cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and lift out'slices' with a flattish spoon.) Mix the spinach, radicchio, sliced radishes, peeled and sliced avocado, and peeled and sliced mango.
- Whisk together, or shake in a jar, the orange juice, mustard, salt, pepper and oil.
- Toss gently into the salad.

ABBY'S GRILLED PRAWN MANGO AVOCADO SALAD
This salad is visually a beautiful dish. Each bite bursts a different texture.... sweet from the mango and dried blueberries, crunch from the salad, tomatoes and nuts or smooth from the avocado. I served this to a friend for a luncheon and I was so impressed that I served it again to my DD that night. She said that it has become one of her top 10 favorite salads. Unless you like your salads swimming in dressing, this dressing is so flavourful that you don't need alot to go around. I served this with my recipe #269324 and Mirj's Recipe #24593
