  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine diced mango, cucumber, blueberries, and avocado. Gently mix with a spatula.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  7. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat without mashing the avocado.
  8. Finely chop cilantro and sprinkle over the salad, giving it one last gentle toss.
  9. Serve immediately or refrigerate briefly before serving. Store dressing separately if preparing ahead.
