Avocado, Pink Grapefruit and Mache Salad image

Amounts are suggestions only. You can use lettuce or mixed greens instead of mache. Use pink or ruby grapefruit. As AmandaInOz suggested, I am revising this recipe to include a Dijon dressing. I like Trader Joe's Dijon mustard with white wine.

Categories     Citrus

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoona fruity extra virgin olive oil
4 -6 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 medium pink grapefruit
1 medium avocado, sliced
mache, leaves trimmed
celtic salt

Steps:

  • For the mustard vinaigrette:.
  • In the salad bowl, mix mustard well with oil; add juice and continue to blend until thoroughly blended.
  • For the salad:.
  • Peel, section and de-membrane the grapefruit and place in salad bowl.
  • Add sliced avocado and a few handfuls of mache leaves or greens.
  • Toss gently.
  • Salt to taste.
  • Sometimes I simply halve the grapefruit and scoop out the sections with a grapefruit spoon. This is messier and less attractive than carefully removing all the membranes of each grapefruit section, but it saves a little time.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pink grapefruits
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, cracked
2 cups (packed) mixed baby greens
1 small avocado, halved, pitted, peeled

Whisk juice, olive oil, and next 6 ingredients in small bowl. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Toss greens with 2 tablespoons dressing in medium bowl and divide between 2 plates. Arrange grapefruit slices and avocado alongside and spoon remaining dressing over.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color, and slightly soft when you gently press them. Avoid avocados that are too hard or have bruises or blemishes.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you cut the avocados evenly and cleanly. Be careful when cutting the avocados, as the pits can be sharp.
  • Remove the pits: To remove the pits, cut the avocados in half lengthwise and twist the halves apart. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the pits.
  • Cut the avocados into desired shape: You can cut the avocados into slices, cubes, or wedges, depending on your preference.
  • Add some flavor: You can add some flavor to the avocados by sprinkling them with salt, pepper, or lemon juice. You can also add other ingredients, such as diced tomatoes, onions, or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Avocado with pink grapefruit and lime is a refreshing and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The avocados provide healthy fats, the grapefruit provides vitamin C, and the lime adds a tart flavor. This salad is also very easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, you can add more or less grapefruit or lime, or you can add other ingredients, such as diced tomatoes, onions, or cilantro.
