Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 whole radishes
- 2 whole pink grapefruit
- 2 cups baby arugula
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
Instructions
Thinly slice the radishes into rounds using a sharp knife or mandolin. Set aside.
Peel the pink grapefruits and remove all the pith. Using a sharp knife, segment the grapefruit, cutting between the membranes to release the individual fruit sections. Collect any juice from the grapefruit into a small bowl and set aside for the dressing.
In a large salad bowl, combine the sliced radishes, pink grapefruit segments, and baby arugula.
Prepare the dressing: In the small bowl with the reserved grapefruit juice, whisk together olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and emulsified.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad, and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves, and sprinkle them over the salad as a garnish.
Serve immediately for a crisp and refreshing flavor combination.
