Warm days call for simple fresh salads and this pineapple cucumber combo with jalapeño lime dressing fulfills that craving 👌🏽🤤

Ingredients:
1 large cucumber, sliced
1/2 cup pineapple, diced
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 jalapeño, seeds removed & sliced
cilantro for garnish (or parsley)

For the jalapeño lime dressing:
1 jalapeño, seeds removed
1 clove garlic (I put two - love it extra garlicky)
1 small shallot, roughly chopped
1/4 cup cilantro (or parsley)
1 tbsp honey
Juice of 2 limes
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1/4 tsp cumin powder
Salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

For the dressing, add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until well combined. Drizzle in olive oil last and taste to adjust.

For the salads, simple all add your ingredients to a bowl, add a healthy drizzle of the dressing and garnish with extra cilantro.

*Notes
Dressing keeps in the fridge up to 5 days.
& chopped peppers, avocado and feta would be good additions to the recipe!

Bon appétit!

chorizo spiced roasted sweet potato bowl with lime cilantro rice, corn, black beans with a healthy drizzle of jalapeño aioli and a little fresh herbs and extra jalapeño for garnish.

for the homemade chorizo seasoning:

3 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp ground ancho pepper
1 tbsp cayenne
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper

I used about 2 tbsp of the seasoning & avocado oil for 1 large chopped sweet potato. Roasted in the oven at 425F for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through.

for the jalapeño aioli:

1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 jalapeño, seeds removed and chopped (I like to leave some of the seeds for more spice)
2 garlic cloves
Juice of 1 lime

add ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend till smooth.

For the bowl to come together quickly, I had some store bought cilantro lime rice.
Simply add desired ingredients to a bowl and enjoy!

Bon appétit!
