It's been awhile since I posted a straight-up salad. I have to remind myself sometimes to blog things that I'd make again, even if they are not revolutionary New Recipes Nobody Has Ever Thought of Before. So, Phoenix people, I realize you probably have all eaten this or something like it 1.5 million times, but allow me to marvel over it from (still-chilly) Colorado...
3 red grapefruits
3 avocados
Head of butter lettuce
2 handfuls pistachios
Feta
Olive oil, salt, soy sauce, white balsamic
Cube the avocados, tear the lettuce leaves, and remove the flesh of the grapefruits keeping it as intact as possible. (If you don't mind pith you could leave some of that in, but I hate the stuff and try to remove it thoroughly.) Reserve the grapefruit juice separately from the flesh, as you may not want to pour ALL of it on your salad. Crush the pistachios a little.
Toss the avos, lettuce, grapefruit flesh, feta, and nuts in a liberal quantity of grapefruit juice, a drizzle of olive oil, salt to taste, and tiny splashes of white balsamic and soy sauce.
