This vibrant red chard and blood orange salad is a stunning example of how simple, plant-based ingredients can create a sophisticated starter or light lunch. The earthy depth of the steamed chard provides a robust base for the buttery avocado and the sharp, citrusy notes of the blood orange segments. It is a dish that celebrates contrasting textures, from the tender greens to the satisfying crunch of toasted slivered almonds.
As a nutritious vegan option, this recipe is perfect for seasonal entertaining when blood oranges are at their peak. The clever mango chutney dressing adds a sweet and tangy glaze that ties the savoury and fruity elements together beautifully. Serve these individual wreaths as an elegant opening course for a dinner party or as a refreshing, nutrient-dense midday meal.

How to make Red Chard, Avocado, and Blood Orange with Mango-Chutney Dressing
Steam or boil the chard leaves for 3 to 4 minutes, then plunge them into cold water. Gently squeeze as much moisture as possible from the chard. You should end up with a ball a little bigger than a baseball. Chop the chard on a cutting board, salt and pepper liberally, and divide into 4 equal portions. Make a small chard wreath on each of 4 plates and fill the middle with avocado pieces and orange sections, artfully arranged however you like.
Put the olive oil, vinegar, chutney, and salt and pepper to taste into a jar and shake vigorously. Carefully drizzle everything with the dressing, using a light hand, then scatter the almonds and grated orange zest over them. Give each plate a final flick of salt and pepper.
