Ingredients

  1. 1 large grapefruit, peeled and sectioned
  2. 6 mint leaves
  3. ½ sprig fresh dill, stemmed
  4. ½ teaspoon Chinese rice vinegar
  5. 1 ½ tablespoons avocado oil

  9. ¼ teaspoon coarse ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place 1 grapefruit segment, mint leaves, dill, vinegar, and oil into a mini electric blender. Pulse a few times to create a vinaigrette.
