Avacado and Grapefruit Salad


DAY 40

Such an un-original, yawning title, but I'm afraid my creative juices have really run dry today. I expect a fresh shipment of such "juices" tomorrow, or at best, this evening, lol.
The above salad is not my picture (because as everyone knows I'm camera-less at present), but a beautiful picture from somewhere that I cannot for-the-life-of-me remember. Anyway, it's the same salad I had for lunch, minus the mint and a few other things we didn't have (or I didn't feel like putting in) I was in a hurry to eat lunch; therefore, I barely scanned the recipe (from Raw Food Real World) before it was made. Unfortunately, that was our last avacado I used for the salad. I certainly enjoyed every morsel of it; yet, I cannot help but feel a sense of remorse that there are none left (sniff, sniff). If I could eat one fruit the entire day, that is what I would choose.
Oh, and here is the scrummy breakfast I had today:
FRUIT SALAD GALORE
~ Grapes
~ Pineapple slices
~ Orange slices
~ Banana slices
Mix it up and eat as is, or coat lightly with honey and a raw yogurt. An additional idea (which I thinks sounds deluctable) is to coat whatever cut up fruit you wish with a leftover fruit smoothie.

I love avocados!!! I know some people like to use them as a face mask, but I would be licking it off if I tried it!!! [grin]

Keely, I know what ya mean. Oh my word! I adore avacados! All the same, I still want to try an avacado mask. Right now I'm still digging the papaya mask. :)
