Mango Endive Avocado Salad

I'm a salad fanatic and am always on the lookout for something different for lunch.  I had a slew of mangos at home as they had been on sale.  I created this salad using mango, endive, pine nuts, and avocado and I have to say it was delicious.  The sweetness of the mango, the tartness of the endive, coupled with the soft buttery avocado and crunch of the pine nuts - oh yeah!

Ingredients:

• romaine lettuce
• grape tomatoes (mini roma tomatoes)
• avocado
• mango, preferably Artufo
• endive
• pine nuts, toasted
• sliced almonds, toasted
• green onions, if desired

Shred the romaine and slice the endive.  Chop the mango, tomatoes, and avocado.  Sprinkle with pine nuts and sliced almonds.

I think my dressing was made with olive oil and white wine or white balsamic vinegar.  A regular balsamic dressing would be too heavy and take away from the lightness of the ingredients.

Enjoy!
