 Let's All Enjoy Summer's Thrill of the Grill By Grace O

Spinach Grapefruit Salad
By Grace O
Spinach contains iron as well as age-defying antioxidants. Grapefruit is chock-full of vitamin C and potassium. You can use pink or white grapefruit in this salad, though pink grapefruit has the added benefit of lycopene. If you use whole segments of the grapefruit, you'll also add fiber.

Grace's Honey-Lime Dressing perfectly compliments the mellow flavor of the spinach. Get The Recipe!
