Less work than your usual fruit salad, this easily arranged dish bridges the gap between a tossed green and a fresh fruit salad.

Make ahead

Prepare dressing and leave at room temperature. Segment grapefruit and seal in a plastic bag and refrigerate. Prepare endive and refrigerate, covered with a damp paper towel, for up to 1 day. Slice avocado just before arranging salad on a serving platter.
