Chef's Notes
Substitutions
Substitute spinach with arugula or your favorite leafy greens of choice.
Substitute blackberries with strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.
In place of red onion use shallots.
For the orange, use seedless oranges if possible like Navel, Cara Cara, mandarin, or Valencia.
Use the Fruit Only
For the grapefruit and the orange, try to avoid using the white pith as it can create more bitter and less sweet flavors.
Prep Ahead
Segment the grapefruit and orange slices ahead of time. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days before using in this dish.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
