Grapefruit, Avocado and Spinach Salad

Grapefruit, Avocado and Spinach Salad

Ingredients:

1 Grapefruit
1 Avocado
1 bag of Spinach (baby is better if you have it)
Olive Oil
White Vinegar
Sugar
Salt
Pepper (A lemon pepper works well too)

Instructions:

1. Scoop out avocado and cut into segments. Salt slightly.
2. Cut grapefruit into segments, BUT save excess juice. Squeeze extra juice from the grapefruit carcass into a bowl with the excess juice.
3. Take excess grapefruit juice, and make it into a grapefruit vinegarette. Add a little white vinegar if you don't think you have enough grapefruit. The grapefruit is meant to serve as the acid (vinegar) of the vinegarette. Add 3 times the amount of olive oil. Ratio (3 to 1, oil to vinegar). Add a little sugar to taste, maybe a spoonful. Then a little salt and pepper to taste. I think I've used lemon pepper before and that worked pretty good.
4. Dress spinach or baby spinach with the dressing. Place chunk of avocado and grapefruit on top.
