Citrus Rules

Winter Citrus Salad

One of my favorite things about winter is the citrus we have at our fingertips. What citrus I can’t find close to home, I can find at the local farmers market. For today’s post I thought I’d share a simple citrus salad. A salad that is so simple it’s almost a crime to write down an actual recipe. You can mix up the fruit, add or substitute a tangerine, clementine or another variety. Add another type of green, sprinkle with fresh coconut; the variations are endless.

Hope you have a chance to enjoy this deliciousness yourself, it’s almost a guarantee to chase those winter blues away. As an added plus they are loaded with vitamin C and other disease fighting antioxidants.
