Bright citrus pairs perfectly with peppery olive oil, sticky honey, and crunchy nuts and seeds. Serve as a starter or even as a refreshing dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 naval orange, rind removed, cut into 1/4" slices
- 1 blood orange, rind removed, cut into 1/4" slices
- 1 red grapefruit, rind removed, cut into 1/4" slices
- 1 kiwi, peeled, cut into 1/4" slices
- 2 tablespoons nuts and seeds*
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon raw honey
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
On a large serving platter arrange the citrus and kiwi in an overlapping pattern.
Drizzle with olive and honey, and a sprinkle of salt. Top with nuts and seeds.
*Make your own combination of chopped nuts (pistachio, almond, pecan, etc.) and seeds (sesame, chia, flax, etc.) or buy a ready-to-go mix. My favorite is the Salad Pistachio Mix from The Spice Way in Encinitas.
