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.

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.
