Ingredients:

3-4 different citrus fruits – we recommend grapefruit, blood oranges, navel oranges, and/or cara cara oranges

1 ripe avocado – thinly sliced

2 T of your favorite nuts – pistachios or pine nuts work well (add more if you like more crunch)

1/4 cup of a soft cheese – goat cheese or sheep cheese works well

2 shallots – thinly slices

Fresh herbs like mint or basil

For the dressing:

1/2 cup olive oil

3 T fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice

1 T dijon mustard

1 T local honey

Minced garlic (measure with your heart)

Salt & Pepper

Instructions: 

Cut away the peel and pith from all the citrus, then slice the flesh into ½-inch-thick rounds or chunks.

Thinly slice your avocado.

Make the dressing by whisking together all the ingredients.

Assemble the salad on a plate by layering the citrus, shallots, and avocado. Then top with the cheese crumbled, nuts, and fresh herbs. Drizzle with a few spoonfuls of the dressing and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately.

Enjoy!
