Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 1 large orange
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the baby spinach leaves. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the avocado, remove the pit, and slice it into thin wedges. Add the avocado slices to the salad bowl.
Peel the orange, removing all the white pith. Cut the orange into segments, working over a bowl to catch any juice. Add the orange segments to the salad and reserve the juice for the dressing.
Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the salad.
To make the dressing, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, fresh orange juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until emulsified.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy this fresh, vibrant salad!
