Grapefruit and Avocado Salad



Over the weekend I was introduced to Grapefruit and Avocado salad for the first time. I'm always interested in summer salads that can sit out and survive the summer picnic/BBQ/outdoor event. This salad comes from my recently married friend Dave and it's the perfect accompaniment to any summer meal.

Grapefruit and Avocado Salad
1 lg. Grapefruit, segmented
1 lg. Avocado, diced
1 Tbs Balsamic Vinegar

Segment the grapefruit and toss with diced avocado. Squeeze any remaining juice from the grapefruit membranes over the avocado . Mix well, making sure to coat the avocado with juice on all side - this will keep it from oxidizing and turning brown. Toss with balsamic vinegar and serve.

I tried making this last night and it was delicious! How do you recommend making it look more like your picture and and less "murky" like mine looked? I think I may have just mixed it too much after adding in the extra grapefruit juice and balsamic vinegar. I love this recipe though!
