Instructions
Assembly
- Prepare the 1 grapefruit by peeling and dividing it into sections.
- Cut the 2 red apples into wedges, ensuring they are cored but not peeled.
- Arrange the 1 grapefruit sections and 2 red apple wedges alternately on top of the 6 lettuce leaves.
- Serve immediately with French dressing drizzled over the top.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: Prepare the fruit and lettuce separately and store in the refrigerator; assemble just before serving to prevent the apples from browning and the lettuce from wilting.
