Satsuma Orange, Mango, and Pineapple Salad

Lunch time:


I took this picture outside because it doesn't look so good in the basement, which is where our kitchen is currently stationed. 

Talk about your fast food: 

Mango, satsuma (mandarin) oranges, and pineapple on a bed of Lolla Rosa and butter lettuce. Took all of 5 minutes to  make. The reason I threw these ingredients together is because of the food combining rules I mentioned awhile ago.

Oranges and pineapple are Acids and mangoes are Sub-Acids. They can play together. Lettuce cuts the sweet. This particular lettuce mixture is great with these fruits. You could also add celery to give it crunch.

Here's a pic of my Granola Girl eating it. If you look carefully, she ate all the satsuma oranges. These suckers are from Peru. (When you're in Newfoundland like we are, just about everything you buy on the rock is far away, so I don't want anyone wagging their fingers to me about carbon footprints. More on this later.) Now, who doesn't love mandarin oranges?
