Grapefruit & Avocado Salad with Cilantro-Lime Dressing

Try this new summer salad for a knockout dish that is sure to complement any BBQ!

I am admittedly on a grapefruit bender right now (could be worse, right?!) and threw together this summer salad when my friend Amanda came over. She later made it for her family and added chopped pistachios to it, which I thought was a great addition. Citrus-y, creamy from the avocado, a hint of pepper from the arugula and the cilantro-lime dressing gives it some zing.  Delish!

1-2 cups fresh arugula
1 avocado, pitted and sliced
1 ruby red grapefruit, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup chopped pistachios

Dressing:

1 cup lightly chopped cilantro
Zest of one lime
3 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Plate the arugula and liberally spread grapefruit and avocado over the salad. Sprinkle pistachios over grapefruit and avocado.

Add dressing liberally over the top. Serve chilled.
