The citrusy and minty freshness of this salad is an incredible combo that will wake you up and put a little sunshine in your day! Not to mention it’s so healthy full of Vitamin C, beta carotene – great for skin, fibre and antioxidants and lots more. Sprinkle the pomegranate arils on top of the grapefruit and clementine slices, Top with fresh mint leaves and serve.
Ingredients
- 1 pink grapefruit
- 2-3 clementines
- 1/2 pomegranate, deseeded
- a few leaves of fresh mint
Instructions
- Wash and peel off the skins of the fruit. Cut the grapefruit into chunks and slice the clementines into slices so it looks pretty in a wide bowl.
- To deseed the pomegranate, my favourite way is to submerge into a bowl of cool water and cut and pull apart the pieces while the fruit is submerged in the water. I have tried many methods (including the ‘spanking’ method) this is the only way I find keeps the juices away from your clothes and surrounding area – that’s because the water prevents the juice bursts to fly through the water and they stay in the bowl. Then, drain the arils on a calendar and enjoy!
