By , About.com Guide

Traditional French dressing for fruit salad is made with fresh-squeezed grapefruit or lemon juice in place of the vinegar. This grapefruit version is mouth-watering when tossed with citrus and melons. Make sure to zest only the colored part of the grapefruit peel; the white pith is extremely bitter.
