A wonderful summer salad combination of rich, creamy avocado and the sweet-tart pink grapefruit! It also happens to be vegan and dairy-, gluten-, sugar-, wheat-, and yeast-free! 

Ingredients

2 pink grapefruit
2 ripe avocados, peeled and sliced
4 baby beetroot, cooked and cut into wedges
60g toasted cashew nuts
handful mint leaves, chopped
handful of mixed green leaves
sea salt and black pepper to taste
2 tbls olive oil
1 tsp maple syrup

Method

Combine grapefruit segments in a separate bowl with the beetroot, cashews, avocado and chopped mint.

Chef ‘s Notes: Add a little crumbled feta cheese for a richer more substantial salad.
