One of the things I love about summer is all the abundant fruit the season offers us. It’s hard to say which ones are my favorite these days but mangos are high up on that list, I can’t seem to get enough of them. We are buying them by the cases these days and putting them into our smoothies, ice creams, and this amazing summer sprouts salad.
Sprouts are another favorite of mine during the summer as they offer a high concentration of nutrients, water content (which helps me stay hydrated) and they taste good with just about anything (especially avocado). I have good news! This recipe has all three, avocado, mango and sprouts. How great is that?!
This mango sprouts summer salad is easy to make, all you need is a handful of sprouts and top it with my favorite easy mango salsa recipe and it’s that easy. I sometimes add extra avocado and mix it all up to make it rich and creamy.
