What To Serve With Mango Blueberry Salad

  • Bread: Serve with crusty bread or rolls for a satisfying lunch or light dinner.
  • Pairings: This salad pairs well with dishes like grilled fish or a light pasta.

Make-Ahead Tips

Prepare the dressing and wash and chop the ingredients ahead of time, but assemble the salad just before serving to prevent wilting.

Seasonal Variations

  • Seasonal Fruit – Depending on the season, you can substitute or add other seasonal fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or kiwi to the salad.
  • Seasonal Greens – Experiment with using seasonal greens like watercress, baby kale, or frisée for different flavors and textures.

Notes On The Ingredients

Spinach-Arugula Mix – If you want a different lettuce mix, you are welcome to use it. This one just goes particularly well with the other ingredients. But any lettuce mix will taste good here. Spring mix is another good option.

Fresh Mango – Buy a whole mango and chop it yourself, or purchase pre-chopped mango to make life easier.

Fresh blueberries

Feta cheese – You can use any type of feta you like best. I used a sheep/goat combination. But any type will work here.

Date – Opt for a Medjool date to get the right size.

Walnuts – You can buy walnut halves and chop them yourself, or buy walnut pieces and skip the chopping.

Dressing

Extra virgin olive oil – Or any light-flavored oil you prefer to use.

Dijon mustard – No sugar added.

Apple cider vinegar – I used vinegar with the mother.

Honey – Any type you prefer to use is fine.

Salt and Pepper – To taste.
