This Citrus Avocado Salad with Blueberry Vinaigrette is not only stunning but is full of rich flavors. It’s filled with a mix of all your favorite fresh fruit for a refreshing taste just in time for the new year. This salad has definitely become one of my favorite salads to make.

The dressing used for this salad is a blueberry vinaigrette made with blueberries, Marukan Genuine Brewed Rice Vinegar, honey, lemon juice, and olive oil. This dressing is divine, and you can use it in other recipes as well. After cutting the citrus into rounds and spreading them decoratively on a plate, you just have to add the kiwis, avocados, and blackberries. I love the topping of pistachios to give the salad a little salty kick.
