My aunt loved this recipe on warm summer days and said, "With the already-prepared grapefruit sections, this salad can be fixed in a snap." She passed away, but her recipes keep her active in my heart.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

A refreshing salad that tastes like summer! This grapefruit salad combines creamy avocado, tart grapefruit, and red onions with a little bite. Blue cheese crumbles add more flavor. What brings the salad together is the slightly sweet and tangy homemade dressing. Enjoy this salad all summer long alongside grilled fish, steak, or chicken.
