Shrimp & Avocado & Grapefruit Summer Salad


Ah this spanish salad was so refreshing and wonderful given today it has been 38 degrees outside. This is the original recipe, but I added a few twists here and there to make it a whole meal, basically I added noodles, chow mein I already had ready to go. (On that note: don't you think Chow Mein are the best noodles ever?? I do.) 

This proportions are for 2 people only.

INGREDIENTS: 
-15 decent shrimp.
-2 grapefruit (one for juice only)
-1 or 2 avocado.
-some lettuce.
-some green onions or red onions diced up in cubes.
-some pasta or Chow Mein noodles for carbohydrates.
For dressing:
-The juice of half of a grapefruit.
-2 tablespoons of apple vinegar.
-2 tablespoons of olive oil.
-salt and pepper. 

STEPS:
1. The preparation is crazy simple. Peel up the cooked shrimp. 
2. Slice up the avocado.
3. Peel up the grapefruit and get all skin off from each segment.
4. Now prepare the vinagratte in a bowl. Mix: grapefruit juice, olive oil, apple vinegar and salt and pepper and give it a good mix. 
5. Now place the shrimp in the vinagrette and let it soak there for 5 minutes. They have to be well coated.
6. Add the diced red onions to the mix.
7. Now prepare the bed of salad and noodles.
8. Place on top, the avocado, the grapefruit, and now pour all the shrimp with the dressing.

That's it. SOOOOO good and most importantly: so refreshing.
