Minty Grapefruit and Avocado Salad

Before winter is too far gone, let me share this salad, which I made several weeks ago when our farm fresh veggie box delivered grapefruits and avocadoes. This salad is very refreshing and exotic and could actually be a great spring or summer salad, if you want to break the rule of eating seasonal fruits and veggies ;)


Salad:
1 lettuce, washed and chopped
1 grapefruit, peeled with a knife and then cut in cubes
1 avocado, cubed
1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/4 red onion
1/4 cup mint leaves, chopped

Dressing:
2 limes, juiced
2tbsp agave syrup
2tbsp hemp oil (or flaxseed oil, or olive oil)
salt and pepper to taste

En Francais:
1 laitue
1 pamplemousse, pele et coupe en cubes
1 avocat en cubes
3 cs de graines de courge
1/4 oignon rouge
2-3 cs de feuilles de menthe fraiche, coupees fines

Sauce:
jus de 2 citrons verts
2 cs de sirop d'agave
2 cs d'huile de lin ou d'olive
poivre et sel a volonte
