This is the perfect time of year to enjoy grapefruit (the season is starting in Florida) so this recipe would be an especially pretty addition to your Thanksgiving spread. Just think how nicely a refreshing salad would help balance out the turkey, gravy, and other “heavy” dishes like casseroles and such that we’re so used to seeing (and look forward to!) on our holiday table.
Or, holidays aside, you could even add some cooked shrimp to this dish and call it a yummy and easy weeknight meal (or lunch). So many ways to enjoy!

Can I replace spinach with lettuce? Thank you for making healthy this easy.
I️ made this for thanksgiving with white and red grapefruit and added persimmon and pomegranate seeds for added color!
You could use different greens, sure.

I and my daughter both are on weight loss and i was looking for food products that can help us in that and i am pretty sure that this recipe will help us in that. However, i knew that grapefruit will help us but i think with this we can have a tasteful diet.
Thank you so much for sharing. Keep up the good work. Cheers!
