Peel the blood orange and separate the segments. Save any extra juice when peeling and add it to the vinaigrette for extra flavor.
In a large salad bowl, combine the baby spinach, blood orange segments, raspberries, red onion, feta cheese, and toasted pecans.
Pour the prepared vinaigrette over the salad, and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant and flavorful spinach salad with blood orange raspberry vinaigrette.
