Citrus-Vanilla Salad

Brunch element #3. The pic of this (Food Network mag.) was stunningly beautiful!!!
(serves 6-8)

3 navel oranges (or Cara Cara*, if you can find 'em)
3 small pink or red grapefruits
3 blood oranges
Juice of 2 lemons (preferably Meyer lemons)
1/4 cup Sugar in the Raw*
1/4 cup water
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, seeds scraped out - KEEP!!

Trim the bottoms and tops of the fruits, then cut away the peel and pith with a paring knife. Slice the fruit crosswise and arrange in rows on a platter. Combine the lemon juice, sugar, water, and the vanilla seeds in a small saucepan over med. heat. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat and let cool to room temp. Pour the syrup over the fruit, cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.

God is GOOD!!!!

Love,

MM
