PREPARATIONS
|
In a small bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients and whisk well together.
In a large bowl, combine the grapefruit, orange, onion, arugula, and basil leaves. Stir the dressings well, add just enough to moisten the ingredients (there will be some dressing left over), and toss to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and pomegranate seeds if you have them, and serve.
