I saw this recipe on Barefoot Contessa (Ina Garten's show) I made just a couple of changes to suit our tastes. (jarred grapefruit segments and we added the lettuce and onions).
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1 head butter lettuce (separate leaves)
4 large avocados
2 (12 ounce) jars pink grapefruit, segments
1/2 medium red onion, sliced thinly
Directions:
1. Place the mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
2. Slowly whisk in the olive oil.
3. Before serving, cut the avocados in 1/2, remove the seeds, and carefully peel off the skin.
4. Cut each half into 4 thick slices.
5. Toss the avocado slices in the vinaigrette to prevent them from turning brown.
6. Drain the jars of grapefruit, saving 1 cup of juice.
7. Place butter lettuce on platter.
8. Add avocado slices, grapefruit segments and slices of red onion.
9. Spoon the vinaigrette on top, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.
