Avocado with Citrus Salad with Nut Sprinkles

 

2 fresh ruby grapefruits

1 small or half a large jicama or 1 daikon radish cut into matchstick-size

pieces.

Juice of one small lime

2 ripe avocados sliced in thin wedges (tossed in some fresh lime juice to keep

their color)

washed young greens such as spinach, watercress or arugala

1/3 cup cole slaw dressing or a poppy seed honey mustard dressing, divided in

half

sliced almonds

A sprinkle of chopped cilantro or parsley

 

Trim the peel off the grapefruits so that no pith remains, thinly (about 1/4

inch) slice the whole peeled grapefruit perpendicular to the navel so the

individual segments are all visible. The slices will look somewhat like wagon

wheels.

Toss the greens with half of the dressing. On a platter or individual plates,

lay a thin bed of the greens, arrange grapefruit, avocado and jicama, and

drizzle remaining dressing on top of salad. If desired, garnish with almonds and

a little cilantro or parsley. Serves 6.
