Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Mixed salad greens
- 2 Oranges
- 1 cup Slivered almonds
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.25 medium Red onion
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the mixed salad greens and place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the oranges and cut them into bite-sized segments, removing any seeds. Add the orange segments to the salad bowl with the greens.
Toast the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until golden and fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the salad along with the dried cranberries and toasted almonds.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, honey, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad just before serving and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
