For Ashley’s shower last week, Mary and Sue made this fabulous salad that I can’t wait to make for company!

Grapefruit + Avocado Salad

Salad

• 2-3 Grapefruit
• 3-4 Avocado
• 2-3 heads of Butter Lettuce/Boston Lettuce or Living Lettuce.

Dressing

• 1 c. extra virgin olive oil
• 2/3 c. grapefruit juice
• 1/4 c. Orange Citrus vinegar (Trader Joe’s) or champagne vinegar
• 1 t. sea salt
• 1 t. cracked pepper
• 4 smashed garlic cloves
• 1 T. Dijon    

1. Section grapefruits, reserve juice for dressing.
2. Peel and slice avocados and dust with lime powder to prevent browning.
3. Pile fruit on top of lettuce…do not toss.
4. For dressing, mix with stick blender…add to salad to taste.

Serve on a beautiful platter rather than a bowl.

I loved this.
