Abby's Grilled Prawn Mango Avocado Salad
This salad is visually a beautiful dish. each bite bursts a different texture.... Sweet from the mango and dried blueberries, crunch from the salad, tomatoes and nuts or smooth from the avocado. i served this to a friend for a luncheon and i was so impressed that i served it again to my dd that night. she said that it has become one of her top 10 favorite salads. unless you like your salads swimming in dressing, this dressing is so flavourful that you don't need alot to go around. i served this with my recipe #269324 and mirj's recipe #24593
