Grapefruit Avocado Salad
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Yield: 4 to 6 salads
Ingredients:
* 1 -2 head(s) butter lettuce
* 2 grapefruits
* 2 avocados
* 3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
* 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
* 1/2 tsp. ground mustard
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preparation:
1. Separate the butter lettuce leaves. Rinse them clean and pat them dry. Set aside.
2. Cut the peel off the grapefruits. Over a bowl to catch the juices, cut the grapefruits into sections. (See these step-by-step directions if you've never sectioned citrus before.) Set sections aside and reserve the juice.
3. Halve avocados. Remove pit, peel, and cut into slices. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, 1 Tbsp. of the reserved grapefruit juice, and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste.
5. Add butter lettuce leaves to bowl of dressing (rip into bite-size pieces if you like). Toss gently until leaves are evenly coated in the dressing. Lift dressed lettuce out of the bowl and divide into individual plates.
6. Put avocado slices in the bowl and toss to coat with any remaining dressing. Place on individual plates.
7. Add grapefruit sections to individual salads. Drizzle any remaining dressing over the salads, if you like.
