Citrus Endive Salad

 I was looking in the frig to see what I had to make a salad. Endive and a grapefruit and that reminded me that I wanted to try to repeat a grilled endive citrus salad that I had at 108. While looking online for a recipe that had grapefruit and endive, I came across something on Real Simple that I ended up making. It was refreshing in two ways: the bright citrus flavor and making a salad that was new to me. I made slight modifications to the original version.

Yields: 2 large servings or 4 dinner sized salads

Ingredients

3-6 heads of Belgian endive, trimmed and halved crosswise

1-2 cups of grapefruit segments, separated from the membrane

1/4 cup pistachios

2 oz, goat cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1-2 tablespoons of honey

Directions

Arrange endive, grapefruit segments and pistachios on a serving platter. Top with goat cheese, mint and salt. Drizzle with olive oil and honey.
