This is a wonderful salad from Ocean Spray! The tang of the grapefruit and the earthiness od the cumin makes for a wonderful combination! Feel free to add in other veggies or nuts. I like to put in bean sprouts and alfalfa sprouts (I lived in Calif. most of my life! lol).Another good addition would be mushrooms! A touch of Cayenne will liven this salad right up! The dressing goes with a lot of different salads too. Note**Some people who take cholesterol meds aren't supposed to eat grapefruit, so check with your doctor before trying this. Ingredients:
