Ingredients

  • 2 avocados, peeled and sliced

  • Lettuce Head

Citrus vinaigrette:

  • 1 shallot minced (1 Tbsp)
  • 1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh oregano or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 1/2 tsp lime zest
  • 3 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 cup light olive oil
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix the vinaigrette ingredients.
  • Peel and slice the avocados. Arrange slices of avocados and grapefruit segments on a plate on a bed of a few lettuce leaves.
  • Spoon dressing over the salad.

Notes

The vinaigrette recipe makes more dressing than you will need for the amount of avocado and grapefruit. Refrigerate the extra in a jar and use it for another salad.
