Mixed Greens With Grapefruit Vinaigrette

From the Editors of Live Right Live Well

So many different dressings complement mixed greens, but this grapefruit vinaigrette is a cool, refreshing flavor burst. Plus, it’s made with walnut oil, a vegetable oil filled with omega-3 fatty acids for protecting your heart. You’ll find walnut oil right near the olive and canola oil in supermarkets and specialty food stores. Mixed greens contain far more vitamins, especially vitamin A, than iceberg lettuce.

Makes 8 servings (2 cups mixed greens with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette per serving)

Ingredients
¾ cup grapefruit juice
1 teaspoon honey
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon finely minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced shallot
3 tablespoons walnut oil
16 cups mixed salad greens
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions
1. Whisk grapefruit juice, honey, mustard, garlic and shallot in a small bowl.

2. Add walnut oil and continue whisking.

3. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Toss mixed greens with dressing.
