Prawn Avocado and Mango Salad - pinnable image for Pinterest

A super simple, yet totally delicious salad, that only takes 5 minutes to make! This Easy Prawn, Mango and Avocado Salad makes a fab main meal in its own right, or can be served as part of a picnic or barbecue.

Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad

So, on Tuesday I shared with you my recipe for my 5 minute Mexican Salad, and today I bring you another gorgeous summery salad that is healthy, tasty and above all easy.

Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad

My recipes come about in many ways, but many of my recipes are inspired by me dreaming up a bunch of things I love, that I think would go together – for example my Chicken, Chorizo and Sweet Potato Traybake was one such meal.

And this Easy Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad is another example – I kind of go into daydream mode, thinking about all my favourite foods and what would go together nicely and ‘bam’ I have a recipe.

Prawn, Avocado & Mango Salad

I just adore prawns and avocado together – it’s a really classic combination, and began to think – hmm I wonder what would happen if I put some mango into the mix? And then I began wondering what else would work and what kind of dressing, and before very long I had the makings of a wonderful salad… a little recipe testing later and I was extremely happy with my creation 😀

Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad

This Easy Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad is wonderfully light and fresh and just says summer all over it. It is also incredibly quick to throw together – it takes just 5 minutes, if you have ready cooked prawns.

Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad

You could totally eat this as a meal in its own right – the combination of prawns, avocado and mango is actually quite filling. But if you are craving some carbs, then serve this with toasted brown pittas or flatbreads.

Wine wise, this Easy Prawn, Avocado and Mango Salad would go brilliantly with a New Zealand or Chilean Sauvignon Blanc – one that has a bit of personality to it – to stand up to all that lime in the dressing!

    I’m loving these five minute salads Eb. I don’t eat prawns but I’m loving the idea of a mango avocado combo – they’re two of my favourite things but I don’t think I’ve ever had them together. #CookBlogShare

      Aw, thanks Mandy! Makes a change from the 3 hour stews, eh? 😉 Oh mango and avocado are an awesome combination – you should so try it, especially with lime juice and mint in the mix. I think this salad would still work well without the prawns and if you don’t need it to be vegan, some crumbled feta would work really well on top or maybe some mozzarella!? Eb x

      Thank you! It’s well worth getting the mango. Prawns and avocado are a great combo, but add in the mango and it is AMAZING! Eb x
