Dragon Fruit Avocado Salad
A fresh tropical salad made with dragon fruit, creamy avocado, cucumber, greens and a bright lime dressing.
Dragon fruit avocado salad is a colorful savory dish that combines juicy dragon fruit with creamy avocado, crisp cucumber and fresh greens. The mild sweetness of pitaya works surprisingly well with a tangy lime and olive oil dressing, while pumpkin seeds add a light crunch. This refreshing salad is ideal for lunch, summer gatherings or as a side dish with grilled foods. For the best texture, use ripe but firm dragon fruit and avocado, and add the dressing just before serving so the ingredients remain fresh and vibrant.
