By boscobojo

Ingredients

• 1 cup walnuts
• 1 Tbl. unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tsp. packed light brown sugar
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. paprika
• Pinch of cayenne pepper
• Kosher salt
• 2/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• 1 Tbl. honey
• 2 tsp. rice vinegar (not seasoned)
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 pink grapefruit
• 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
• 2 heads Belgian endive, cut into large pieces
• 5 cups baby arugula
• 1 small bunch chives, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the walnuts, melted butter, brown sugar, cumin, paprika, cayenne and 1/4 tsp. salt in a medium bowl; toss, then spread the nuts on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the nuts are golden, about 10 minutes. Stir, then set aside to cool.

Meanwhile, make the dressing: Whisk the yogurt, lemon juice, honey, rice vinegar and a pinch each of salt and black pepper in a small bowl; set aside.

Trim the tops and bottoms of the grapefruits, then use a paring knife to remove the peel and white pith. Cut between the membranes to release the segments into a large bowl.

Add the spiced walnuts, celery, endive, arugula and chives to the bowl with the grapefruit. Add the yogurt dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss.
