Grapefruit Salad: Important Info for Spring/Summer SB Demos

[pkd09]

For those of you who are planning to demo this new recipe in the Spring/Summer SB take note: Many individuals who are on a cholesterol medicine are not allowed to eat/drink anything with grapefruit. My husband and I are two of them so this is one recipe I won't even try. Just wanted to let you know.

I made it with naval oranges (used 2 big ones) earlier this week. Also very tasty combo!

That is a great alternative ... thank you. The salad looks so yummy so I was bummed when I saw grapefruit. My husband LOVES grapefruit and he can not have it any more. Thanks again.

Glad to be of help, I have a lot of food restrictions myself on the Renal (dialysis) diet.btw...spinach and strawberries (sliced with egg slicer!) may sound a strange combo but with raspberry or balsamic vinegrette dressing, it is a winner. With out without chicken Not the tang of grapefruit---but tasty!

I am making the salad for an open house tomorrow and bought both oranges and grapefruit because I was not sure enough people would like grapefruit.

This is what I did for my open house the other night and everyone loved it!

Good tip about the fruits; I'm not a grapefruit fan so I'd like to try oranges.

This is a great substiution, thank you. I am using this recipe next month and it'll be nice to offer the guests an option between the two.
