This is a yummy and easy salad. I used to love grapefruit and avocado salad, but can't eat grapefruit anymore and cantaloupe is a lovely substitute!

This salad was a disaster! The avocado was brown and mushy, and the cantaloupe was flavorless. The creamy French dressing was also too sweet for my taste.

I'm not sure I would make this salad again. The flavors of the avocado and cantaloupe didn't really go together for me. The creamy French dressing was also a bit too rich for my taste.
