Joanne Beaupre combines orange juice, red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard in the tangy dressing that perks up her seafood salad. "I had tried a similar salad at a restaurant," she writes from Manchester, Connecticut. "I adapted this version for a fun lunch to take to work. It always gets comments."

I'm not a big fan of grapefruit, but I loved this salad. The dressing was so good that it masked the bitterness of the grapefruit.

I've never been a big fan of grapefruit, but this salad changed my mind. The tartness of the grapefruit paired perfectly with the briny shrimp and creamy avocado. I'll definitely be making this again!
