Healthy Recipes & African Americans - BlackDoctor.org - Mango Chicken Salad: "Mango Chicken Salad

(BlackDoctor.org) -- This recipe sticks to the no-fail formula for assembling a delicious salad: combine lettuce, fruit, cheese, and good dressing. Adding chicken or other meat makes it more of an entree; nuts are also a tasty addition. This salad overachieves by containing two fruits -- mango and blueberry. It's a beautiful combination, however, both flavor-wise and visually. Serve this salad al fresco with a crisp, light wine and good bread.

recipe by Priscilla Soligo of Rawthentic Food

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup avocado (about two small-med size avocados)
  • 3 heaping tbsp raw cacao powder (variation: raw carob)
  • 1 tbsp lucuma powder
  • 1/4 cup coconut meat (variation: Banana)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence/extract (or vanilla powder)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon (ground)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup filtered water
  • 1/2 tsp Celtic or pink Himalayan crystal salt

Directions:

Place all ingredients into a high speed blender with the wet ingredients first and superfood powders last. Blend on high until well incorporated, and if you have a Vitamix blender use the tamper to assist ingredients to blend smoothly. Pour into a martini glass, parfait glass, or bowl and decorate with coconut flakes, cacao nibs, or crushed nuts, which will add texture and crunch. Place in the refrigerator for at least one hour to set up. If you would prefer to use as a chocolate custard, no need to set it up in the fridge – just pour over bananas, fruits, rawnola and enjoy! You can easily use this as a delicious nut-free chocolate spread too (set up in the fridge for at least one hour), dip (no need to set up), or chocolate fondu (no need to set up). Makes about 2 – 3 servings.
