Chop Chop Bread Salad Recipes

CHOP CHOP SALAD

Steps:

• With a very sharp knife, cut a slice from the bottom and top of the grapefruit, cutting into the fruit. Stand the grapefruit up on a work surface, and slice off the peel and white pith in vertical slices, exposing the fruit segments (cut slightly into the fruit part). Use your knife to gently slice between the exposed white membranes, and loosen the grapefruit segments into a bowl. Pick out any seeds.
• Place the grapefruit sections, jicama, orange bell pepper, cucumber, tomato, green onions, and cilantro into a salad bowl, and toss gently to mix.

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender combine all the dressing ingredients and puree. Add more oil if you want a thinner consistency.
• Place all the chopped salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss with the dressing. It's that easy!
• Note
• If you want to make the salad ahead of time, assemble everything except the avocado and dressing. Then stir in the avocado at the last minute and toss everything with the dressing.
• Variations
• Try prosciutto instead of bacon. Or add some feta cheese (and reduce the amount of dressing).
