Spinach, Avocado & Mango Salad image

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.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces baby spinach leaves
4 -6 leaves radicchio
8 -12 small red radishes
1 small ripe mango
1 medium ripe avocado
1 valencia orange, juice of
3 tablespoons hazelnut oil or 3 tablespoons almond oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns

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.
