2 cans garbanzo beans, about 3 cups
1 piece red pepper
3 piece carrots
1/2 piece jicama
1 cup spinach
1/2 cup cilantro
1 piece mango
2 pieces scallions
1/4 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons olive or coconut oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon chipotle

Steps:

Peel mango and place in a blender with all other dressing ingredients. Blend on high until uniform and creamy. It will look like a smoothie. Season to taste.
In a large bowl, pour dressing over garbanzo beans and let sit while you prepare the rest of the salad filling
As you chop up the vegetables for the salad, add them as you go and stir to get an idea on how much more you need. Stop when the salad is well-dressed but not super gloppy.
Serve with sliced avocado and lime wedges on the side. Garnish with more cilantro, sprouts, pumpkin seeds, or whatever you have on hand.
To make it a complete meal: Serve this salad on top of coconut rice or quinoa, and make sure to include the side of avocado.
