LETTUCE, SPINACH, CITRUS, AND AVOCADO SALAD

Lettuce, Spinach, Citrus, and Avocado Salad image

This easy salad is chock-full of potassium (avocados actually have more potassium than bananas!), fiber, folic acid, vitamin B6, and omega-3 fatty acids. Adapted from the Greens Cookbook, by Deborah Madison (Broadway Books, 2001).

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 head butter lettuce, limestone lettuce or 1 head bibb lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
1 small bunch baby spinach leaves (or one head radicchio, thoroughly cleaned and stems removed)
1 red grapefruit, peeled
1 ripe avocado, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup walnuts, pecans or 1/4 cup almonds, toasted
2 tablespoons fresh grapefruit juice
1/2 tablespoon champagne vinegar or 1/2 tablespoon good-quality white wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

Place the lettuce and spinach (or radicchio) in a large salad bowl. Holding the grapefruit over a separate bowl to catch the juice (save for the vinaigrette), remove the membrane from each section. Add the grapefruit, avocado, and nuts to the greens. Combine vinaigrette ingredients in a jar with a tight lid, and shake vigorously until mixed. Drizzle a little vinaigrette over the salad, toss to coat lightly, and serve immediately.

CITRUS SPINACH SALAD

Citrus Spinach Salad image

A nice, refreshing twist on a spinach salad - a perfect compliment to any holiday meal! Great with Ham! ****Noteworthy - this makes quite a bit of dressing - so depending on your taste, you may want to increase the amount of salad fixings or slightly decrease the dressing (or just save it for another day!!).
