Texas Grapefruit and Avocado Salad
Ingredients:
- 1 Texas Red Grapefruit
- 2 medium avocados
- 1 bag mixed salad greens
- 1 small sweet yellow or red onion
- Garnish: Chopped olives, chopped pecans, crumbled feta or goat cheese.
Directions:
Peel and section the Texas Red Grapefruit which yields 10-12 sections. Set aside to drain. Reserve the juice for another use. Cut the avocados in half, remove the seed and peel them. Slice them to have the same number per plate. Thinly slice the onion separating into rings, enough for 3 to 4 rings per plate. Place the salad greens evenly on plates; top the salad with alternate sections of sweet grapefruit, avocado slices and the onion rings.
Garnish with chopped olives, finely chopped pecans, or crumbled feta or goat cheese. Drizzle a raspberry vinaigrette, poppy seed or balsamic dressing over each salad.
Yield: 4 Servings
