Fresh chicory salad with grapefruit

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

Today I have a delicious fresh salad for you. It is a chicory salad with grapefruit. This is one of my favorite salads because I've been making it for years and it's always a hit. Plus, this salad is easy to adapt to the season simply by changing the fruit you use. For example, you can add pears in the fall, while citrus fruits are perfect for spring. Below you can read how you can make a raw chicory salad in no time.

Chicory is a vegetable that I like to eat. It has a bitter and crunchy taste that goes well with sweet and sour ingredients. Chicory can be eaten both raw and cooked, but I think it tastes best raw. You can cut chicory into thin strips or use whole leaves as a kind of boat to serve the salad in.

Grapefruit is a citrus fruit known for its sweet-sour taste and high vitamin C content. It is a popular choice for a healthy snack or breakfast and is often eaten as slices or presented as juice. Grapefruit also contains fiber, folic acid and antioxidants, which contribute to a healthy lifestyle.

The combination of chicory and grapefruit is really delicious. The bitterness of the chicory is softened by the sweetness of the grapefruit and the sourness gives the salad a fresh kick. You can give the salad even more flavor by pouring a dressing of yogurt, honey and mustard over it. This dressing is creamy, sweet and spicy at the same time.

To make your salad even tastier, you can add walnuts and raisins. These nuts are not only delicious, but also healthy. They contain omega-3 fatty acids, which are good for your heart and brain. In addition, raisins are dried grapes that contain natural sugars and give you energy. These ingredients also ensure that the salad gets a nice crunch and an extra sweetness.

This chicory salad with grapefruit is a perfect lunch or side dish for a light meal. You can also take it to work or school in a container or jar. It's a healthy and delicious way to brighten up your day.

Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.
