Tropical Grapefruit Salad

Tropical Grapefruit Salad

This deceptively looking light salad is quite filling. You may serve it on butter lettuce leaves for an even more elegant presentation. Serves about 4.

  • 1-1/4 c. grated Coconut

  • 2 tsp. organic Tamari sauce

  • 2 Tbs. organic Lime Juice

  • 2 Tbs. Water

  • 2 tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

  • 1 organic Garlic clove, halved

  • 1 organic White Onion, finely chopped

  • 1 large Ruby Grapefruits, peeled and segmented

  • 1 c. organic Alfalfa Sprouts

Toast coconut in a dry skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a bowl.

Add Tamari sauce, lime juice and water to the coconut and mix well.

Heat olive oil on medium in a sauté pan for 1 minute.  Add garlic and onion, and stir until softened. Remove and discard garlic.  Add onions to coconut mixture.

Arrange grapefruit segments among 4 plates.
