GRAPEFRUIT, ORANGE AND AVOCADO SALAD
This is a variation of a delicious salad my late FIL used to make. So refreshing and good with many dishes...grilled fish, roasted chicken to name a couple. Use my Recipe #224936 if you don't have your own ready in the fridge. Kids love this salad, too!

Steps:
- Peel the oranges and grapefruits. I use a sharp knife and cut the ends off 1st, then cut the skin off with the pith.
- Cut into sections.
- Place the lettuce leaves into a serving bowl/platter.
- Peel and slice the avocados.
- Place the citrus and avocado on top of the lettuce and drizzle with a vinaigrette.
Tips:
- To select the ripest and juiciest grapefruit and oranges, look for fruits that feel heavy for their size and have smooth, unblemished skin.
- If you don't have a grapefruit knife, you can use a sharp paring knife to carefully remove the peel and pith from the grapefruit segments.
- To make the avocado dressing, use ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch. This will ensure a smooth and creamy dressing.
- If you don't have fresh mint, you can substitute another fresh herb, such as cilantro or basil.
- This salad can be served immediately or chilled for later. If you are chilling the salad, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

This grapefruit, orange, and avocado salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The combination of sweet and tangy citrus fruits with creamy avocado and crunchy walnuts is sure to please everyone at your table.
