Ingredients

  • 8 cups baby arugula
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 2 large grapefruits sectioned and pith removed
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 english cucumber thinly sliced

For the vinaigrette:

  • 3 tbsp liquid honey
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard or a vegan substitute
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Add the honey, Dijon, sea salt, white wine vinegar, lemon juice and olive oil to a mason jar. Shake well until all the ingredients are combined and the dressing is smooth.
  • Add the arugula to a large bowl, along with the sectioned grapefruit, and the thinly sliced cucumber.
  • Pour as much of the dressing over the salad as you prefer (I rarely use all the dressing) and toss.
  • Top with the chopped walnuts and serve!
