This Mango Cucumber Salad with Blueberries and Avocado is a vibrant, refreshing salad packed with sweet mango, crisp cucumber, juicy blueberries, and creamy avocado. Tossed in a simple citrus dressing, it’s perfect as a light side dish, summer lunch, or picnic favorite.

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup cucumber, diced (English or Persian preferred)
  • 3/4 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice (about 1 lime)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro or mint, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Dice the mango, cucumber, and avocado into bite-sized pieces. Rinse and dry the blueberries.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and honey (if using) to make the dressing.
  3. In a large bowl, gently combine mango, cucumber, blueberries, and avocado.
  4. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat, being careful not to mash the avocado.
  5. Garnish with chopped cilantro or mint if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add grilled shrimp, chicken, or chickpeas to make it a meal.
  • Swap in other fruits like strawberries, pineapple, or pomegranate seeds.
  • Add chili flakes or diced jalapeño for a spicy twist.
  • Serve over greens like arugula or spinach to turn it into a fuller salad.
  • Best eaten fresh; refrigerate leftovers for up to 1 day with extra lime juice to prevent avocado browning.
