If you don’t like the thought of salads, let me tell you, you are not alone. But salads don’t have to be bland and tasteless, they can be full of delicious flavours and colours! This healthy mango and macadamia salad is absolutely delicious and worth a try! Here’s a rundown of a few of the star ingredients:
- Mango: Mangoes are rich in antioxidants, fibre, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium. They have also been shown to boost digestion, improve heart health, and support healthy skin.
- Macadamias: Macadamia nuts are a great source of healthy monounsaturated fats, protein, and fibre. They are also high in antioxidants, which help to protect the body from oxidative damage. Macadamias have been shown to help lower cholesterol levels, improve heart health, and reduce the risk of certain chronic diseases.
- Avocado: Avocados are known for their healthy fat content, fibre, and high vitamin and mineral content. They are a good source of monounsaturated fats, which help to support heart health, and are high in potassium, which helps to regulate blood pressure. Avocados also contain antioxidants, which help to protect the body from oxidative damage.
- Sour cream: While traditional sour cream can be high in fat and calories, DFDU’s sour cream alternative is made with dairy-free ingredients and has a lighter nutritional profile.
Drizzled with your very own, homemade avocado cream dressing made with our DFDU Sour Cream, give this mango and macadamia salad recipe a try for your next lunch or dinner, or steal the show at the next barbecue. Who knew healthy could taste so good?
