- If desired, serve on bed of greens. Extra dressing may be needed if doing so.
- The avocado in this salad is best served fresh, but the dressing can be made ahead of time and the mangoes can be cut ahead also.
- To make this salad a complete meal, add some grilled chicken or shrimp on top.
- Love a bit of heat? Add a small pinch of red pepper flakes to your dressing for a sweet and spicy kick.
- Don't have Gorgonzola on hand? Try a different cheese, like feta or goat cheese.
- For a vegan version, simply omit the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative, and replace honey with pure maple syrup or agave.
- Feel free to customize this salad with your favorite fruits and nuts. Blueberries, strawberries, or toasted almonds would be great alternatives.
