This Avocado and Grapefruit Salad is one of my favorite winter salads. The ingredients are all on sale this time of year and it’s a great salad for holiday meals – the right colors, easy to make and packed full of flavors. It’s also good because it’s full of Vitamin C, fiber and antioxidants – which is good to combat the sniffles that always seem to come around in December!
Trust me on this one. If you think the ingredients seem a little strange together – try it at least once. I was apprehensive at first, but I’m now in love.
