Grapefruit Salad
This is a very refreshing salad. In Southern Mexico, it would most likely be made with fruit vinegar, especially pineapple vinegar, but apple cider vinegar is a good substitute. Only a small amount of dressing is used, since the flavor and juiciness come from the grapefruit.
Ingredients:
1 small head lettuce, washed, dried and torn into small pieces
2 ruby red grapefruits, peeled, separated into segments, white membranes removed
1 avocado, peeled and diced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar or fruit vinegar
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste
Preparation:
Place first four ingredients in a salad bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, cumin and salt. Toss dressing with salad and serve immediately. Serves 6.
