• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Honey

Step 1

Peel the grapefruits, remove the pith, and segment the fruit. Cut each segment into small, bite-sized pieces and transfer to a mixing bowl.

Step 2

Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and add them to the bowl with the grapefruit.

Step 5

Chop the cilantro leaves and stir them into the bowl.

Step 6

In a small separate bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, and honey until well combined. Pour this dressing over the salsa mixture.

Season with salt and black pepper, and gently toss all ingredients together to combine.

Step 8

Let the salsa sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then serve.

Step 9

Enjoy Grapefruit Salsa as a standalone dip with tortilla chips or as a fresh topping for grilled proteins or tacos.
