Mango, Avocado and Brocoli Salad from Young and Raw

Some people choose to get all of their protein needs met with fresh fruits & vegetables, nuts & seeds. Did you know that 1 bunch of broccoli contains 17.1 grams of protein? If you make this Mango Avocado and Broccoli Vegan Salad - you'll get 24.8 grams of protein total in one sitting.*  From Young and Raw

Ingredients:

• 1 Ripe Organic Mango diced
• 1 Ripe Organic Avocado diced
• 1 Head of Broccoli finely sliced
• 2 Dates sliced and chopped

Optional add ons

• A pinch or two of Pink Himalayan Sea Salt
• 1 Teaspoon of Balsamic
• Fresh Ground pepper to taste

Instructions: Chop your broccoli and mango and toss together in a mixing bowl. Pit your dates (you can add extra if you like) and slice them into small pieces. Halve your avocado, remove the pit and slice the avocado into small squares with your knife. Use a spoon to push out the avocado into your bowl and stir generously until the mixture is very creamy and covered in goodness. You can serve immediately, or store for up to 2 days. Fresh is best though when it comes to live foods.
