Avocado Fruit Salad

"To make a good salad is to be a brilliant diplomat - the problem is entirely
the same in both cases. To know how much oil to mix in with one's vinegar."

Avocado Fruit Salad

This is another one of “those” recipes.  No idea from whence it came.
 Has been in my files for a good while… more I cannot tell you.  Sorry.
Other than the fact that it is delicious, of course.  And that it would
mesh well with most Holiday menus that come to mind.

1/2 cup walnut oil
1/3 cup [or less] raspberry vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Minced fresh herbs of your choice
Boston or Bibb lettuce leaves
4 medium red grapefruit, peeled and sectioned
2 medium avocados, peeled, seeded, sliced lengthwise
2 medium papayas, peeled, seeded, sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup toasted chopped walnuts [or toasted nuts of your choice]

For the dressing, combine the walnut oil and raspberry vinegar in a
screw-top jar. Cover and shake well. Chill dressing in the refrigerator
for at least 1 hour.
Line 8 salad plates with Boston or Bibb lettuce leaves. Top with grape-
fruit sections, avocado slices and papaya slices. Sprinkle with toasted
walnuts. (If desired, and if they are available, sprinkle the salads with
fresh raspberries as well.) Shake the dressing well, season to taste with
salt and pepper, and whisk in the herbs. Distribute the dressing evenly
over the salads. Makes 8 servings.
