Arugula and Grapefruit Salad

Another recipe inspired by our farm visit, peppery arugula and sweet/sour grapefruit go perfect together in this simple recipe. The hardest part of this recipe is segmenting the grapefruit. To do this, just peel the grapefruit with a knife, cutting away the peel as well as the pith. Remove the individual segments by cutting between segments in a V shape towards the center of the fruit.

Ingredients

• 1 bunch arugula, washed and dried (chop roughly if using
• large leaves)
• 1 grapefruit, cut into segments
• 1 small handful thinly sliced onion
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• Chopped pecans or walnuts
• Crumbled feta or blue cheese

Directions

In a small saucepan heat oil, vinegar and grapefruit over
medium high heat. Stir for a few minutes until grapefruit
has released some juice.

Season mixture with salt and pepper. Pour over arugula, tossing to coat. Garnish with nuts and cheese. Serve immediately.
