Ingredients

  • 5 cups Baby spinach
  • 2 Grapefruit
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.25 cup Red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 0.25 cup Almonds (sliced and toasted)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and pat dry the baby spinach. Place it in a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Peel and segment the grapefruits: slice off the top and bottom ends, then carefully cut away the peel and pith. Using a paring knife, slice between the membrane to extract the segments. Set the segments aside and squeeze any remaining juice into a small bowl.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the freshly squeezed grapefruit juice (about 2 tablespoons), finely grated ginger, olive oil, honey, white wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Add the grapefruit segments and thinly sliced red onion to the bowl of spinach.

Step 5

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine, ensuring the dressing is evenly distributed.

Step 6

Sprinkle the toasted sliced almonds over the salad for a crunchy finish.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy this fresh, vibrant salad!
