1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar (or Balsamic or even White Balsamic if you prefer)
If you have any juice from segmenting the grapefruit, add this to the dressing!

Ingredients

1 punnet red cherry tomatoes or 1-2 tomatoes, chopped
Juice of two limes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (if you don't have red wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar and a splash of balsamic will do!)

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1-2 Tablespoons pickled jalapenos.
OPTIONAL (for garlic lovers like me!): 1 small clove garlic

Place all ingredients in a high speed blender like a Vitamix, and blend until smooth.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings to your taste.
