Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe and fresh arugula. Look for leaves that are brightly colored and have no signs of wilting.
  • If you don't have grapefruit, you can substitute another citrus fruit, such as orange, lemon, or lime.
  • To make the vinaigrette ahead of time, simply whisk all of the ingredients together and store it in a jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • This salad is also delicious with grilled or roasted chicken or fish. If you are adding protein, be sure to increase the amount of dressing you make.

This arugula salad with avocado and citrus vinaigrette is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is light and healthy, yet still satisfying.
