Directions
A fruit unlike any other, avocado is a fibrous and heart-healthy way to bring creamy texture to any dish. In this light and refreshing summer fruit salad, the mildness of avocado offsets the zesty grapefruit perfectly, making for a flavorsome and vitamin-filled meal.
- Peel and section the grapefruit. Pour lemon juice over the avocado slices to prevent discoloring. Keep the leftover juice to the side.(1 minute)
- In a large salad bowl, toss the avocado, grapefruit, lettuce, and onions.(3 minutes)
- In a small container, mix the leftover lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, cumin, and pepper. Pour dressing over the salad and toss before serving.(2 minutes)
- Top the mixture with the cherry tomatoes and walnuts, and enjoy immediately.(1 minute)
