I love that It can be made with any fruits and veggies. You can put grapefruit, avocados, bananas and any types of nuts. The dressing is so easy and delicious. You can place it over greens, avocado slices, fruit or even shrimp. The dressing recipe makes more than enough so you can use it on several salads.
