My Favorite Summer Jackfruit Salad Lunch/Brunch 😋❤️🌺

Lunch/Brunch is the most important and favorite meal of the day for me so I always love to take it up a notch and today is Jackfruit Salad, my way, my style. 😉

My Mom always told me if you’re going to eat, you eat the best and be ware what you’re going to put in your body.❤️

Main Ingredients: shredded jackfruits with onions, sautéed shrimps, peanuts, basils, cilantros all marinated in balsamic vinegar.

Dessert: Pistachio ice cream and hibiscus ice tea.

I love having this combination with sesame rice crackers. It is light and fulfilling at the same time.

As always, be inspired, be happy, take a picture and Enjoy it! 😋❤️

I bought a can of jackfruit about 2 years ago, but still haven't figured out what to do with it! Might need to use a little for something like this! It sounds nice

[Hidden in reply to Cooper27]

Awe thank you Cooper27. 😁🙏Yes, this is so easy to make and you can make curry with canned jackfruit too. 😋👍

Enjoy the rest of your day! 😊🙏🌺

[ZazenRiver345 in reply to Hidden]

I'm having salad tonight. Mostly spinach leaves. Not too creative yet😅. Work in progress. I learn a lot from your nutritious and colorful meals so thanks for sharing🙏🤗.

[Hidden in reply to ZazenRiver345]

Awe you’re too kind. 😊🙏 Yes I like colorful and fun meals, packed with nutrients is a plus. 😂👍 Now Popeye loves spinach for his muscles 🤣😂. I’m sure you can get your game on with your meals creation soon when Koko’s around here. 😁👍

[ZazenRiver345 in reply to Hidden]

I know I will be at the top of my game soon with Koko around here😁🤗.

[Hidden]

Please give it try. You can make curry, or sautéed with dried fish also. There are so many ways to cook it. 😋 I can’t imagine how much creativity you can cook once you have jackfruit trees in your backyard. 😁👍

[Hidden]

Wow I NEVER had breadfruits before, how does it taste like comparing to jackfruit? 🤔

[Hidden]

Hmmm if I may ask, how would you describe the taste? 🤔 it’s absolutely no doubt heaven is right in your backyard Happyman4! 😇👍

[Hidden]

I see. Thank you for explaining to me. 🙏 You have very kind neighbors and I’m sure they appreciate to have you and your family around. 😊

[Hidden]

Beautiful! 😊👌

Hi Koko, I agree with your mum as food is our fuel and we’ve seen the price people pay for fast processed foods do it costs too much for me.

Eat well sleep well with plenty of exercise =a healthy lifestyle. 😊

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Hi Jerry, that’s a great healthy lifestyle formula. 😁👍

I absolutely am all about eating well, plenty of rest and exercise as well as having creativities in my life journey.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us! 😊🙏🌺

GreatMindfulness,

It sounds like you've enjoyed a very interesting brunch- I think it's the time to be creative with concocting recipes for summer food such as salads- especially in this heat!!

Thank you for sharing xx

[Hidden in reply to TaurusLady]

Thank you TaurusLady. 😊🙏 You are absolutely right we can have so much fun creating not only salad but also fruit bowl and drinks in this heat. Let your imagination run and maybe we will get to see your creation post sometime in the near future also. 😁👍

You’re welcomed and Have a wonderful rest of the day! 🤗☀️🌺

thanks for sharing.

What does jackfruit taste like?

[Hidden in reply to Subtle_badger]

You’re welcomed. 😊🙏 When jackfruits are unripe, they taste a bit sour or some just neutral. When they are ripe, they are sweet and savory.
