“My mother-in-law prepared this for us on a recent visit,” relates Lee Ann Odell of Boulder, Colorado. The fresh-tasting salad of spinach and grapefruit is nicely dressed with a sweet honey mixture. “The recipe is so easy to put together, and we never have any leftovers,” Lee Ann confirms.

Ingredients

1 medium pink grapefruit
1 package (10 ounces) fresh spinach, torn
2 tablespoons chopped green onion
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons prepared mustard

Directions

1. Cut grapefruit in half; with a sharp knife, cut around each section to loosen fruit, reserving juice. In a salad bowl, toss the spinach, onion and grapefruit sections. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the vinegar, oil, honey, mustard and reserved grapefruit juice; shake well. Drizzle over salad and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
