Ready in just five minutes, this colorful salad can be made all year long. Mesclun is an assortment of mixed baby salad greens. If you can’t find it, you can use spring mix instead. For the grapefruit sections, the precut variety is wonderfully convenient, but you can certainly use fresh if you have time to peel and section the fruit. Just be sure to purchase grapefruit packed in water or its own juice, not a light or heavy syrup, which has added sugar and calories. The rich, tangy feta is a wonderful contrast to the sour, sweet-tart flavor of the grapefruit.
