Chef's Kiss Mango and Avocado Salad

Simply the Best
Prep Time:15 minutes
Course: Salad, Side Dish
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 lettuce or equivalent leaves (butter, oakleaf, mignonette work best)
  • 2 avocados
  • 2 mangoes
  • 4-6 bacon rashers, depending on size. Also depends where you are in the world https://www.businessinsider.com/what-bacon-looks-like-around-the-world-2018-10
  • ½-⅔ cup nuts, halved or chopped. Walnuts and pecans both work well

Dressing

  • ¼ cup light virgin olive oil (light works best I think)
  • 1 tbsp thickened cream
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  • The salad is best made at the last minute, but you can prep much earlier by chopping bacon and frying till crisp. Drain and set aside. Combine dressing ingredients and mix well. Store in fridge until needed.
  • Just before serving, peel and slice avocados and mangoes. Arrange over bed of lettuce. Top with dressing, crispy bacon and nuts.
