Mango and Wild Rice Salad

A plant-based rice salad loaded with mango, red onion, radish, celery, chili, herbs, pomegranates, and cranberries. It’s the salad to end all salads, or at least until the next super salad comes along. But let’s be real, this one’s got some serious staying power. It’s like the salad version of the Energizer Bunny, just keeps on going and going and going.

This plant-based dish is packed with fresh ingredients that will make you feel like a superhero, including mango, red onion, radish, celery, chili, herbs, pomegranates, and cranberries.

Not only is it frickin’ tasty, but it is also packed with nutrients that will nourish your body and give you the strength to conquer the world (or at the very least make it through the day). With a variety of fresh ingredients, this salad is an easy way to incorporate the recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables into your diet. Yup, it really can be that easy and delicious to live a healthy life…

You can serve this as a side dish for a healthy roast, as a meal on its own, or as the star of your next potluck (because who doesn’t love being the center of attention?). It is also a great option for a desk lunch that can be made in advance and enjoyed all week.

In this recipe, we recommend using brown or wild rice for a plant-based and gluten-free option, but any grain will work well, such as quinoa or couscous (because variety is the spice of life). This salad is vegan and plant-based, making it a delicious and accessible choice for all (even those picky eaters).
