Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large Navel Oranges, peeled and sliced
  • 1 medium Ruby Red Grapefruit, peeled and supreme-cut
  • 2 medium Ripe Avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced
  • 1/4 small Red Onion, very thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Mint Leaves, torn or chopped
  • 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Honey or Agave
  • Flaky Sea Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. Prepare the citrus fruits by cutting the top and bottom off each orange and grapefruit. Stand the fruit upright and slice away the peel and white pith. Slice the fruit into rounds or segments and place in a large bowl or platter.
  2. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and slice the flesh into wedges. Arrange the avocado wedges among the citrus slices.
  3. Scatter the thinly sliced red onions over the top.
  4. In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper until emulsified. Drizzle the dressing over the salad.
  5. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately.

Notes

Consume the salad the same day for best freshness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. For prep, keep components separate until ready to serve.
