Summer Harvest Salad
A crisp and colorful salad packed with antioxidants, healthy fats, and nutrients to support your gut health.
This salad is summer in a bowl — easy, vibrant, and nourishing for your whole body. Perfect for a quick lunch, a BBQ side, or anytime you want a dish that feels as good as it tastes.
Fresh, colorful, and so simple — this Summer Harvest Salad is one of my favorite ways to enjoy seasonal produce while also giving your body a nourishing mix of fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats. With sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, creamy avocado, and tropical mango, this salad is light but satisfying, and it comes together in just minutes.
This dish is full of fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants. The avocado and olive oil provide nourishing fats to keep you satisfied, while the mango and tomatoes deliver vitamin C and a burst of natural sweetness. The corn adds a grounding element, making this salad hearty enough to stand on its own.
It is simple, vibrant, and made with whole foods that fuel your body while tasting delicious.
This salad helps to support your gut health in a few key ways:
- Corn provides fiber to support digestion and energy.
- Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants like lycopene, great for skin and heart health.
- Avocado delivers healthy fats to balance blood sugar and keep you full.
- Mango adds natural sweetness along with vitamin C for immune support.Olive oil brings anti-inflammatory benefits and helps you absorb fat-soluble nutrients.
Make It Your Own
- Add protein: Pair with grilled salmon, shrimp, or chicken for a balanced meal.
- Brighten it up: A squeeze of lime and fresh herbs like cilantro or basil add even more flavor and phytonutrients.
- Meal-prep tip: Prepare everything ahead except the avocado — slice and add it just before serving to keep it fresh.
