Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Tangerines
- 2 pieces Avocado
- 6 cups Mixed greens
- 0.25 pieces Red onion
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Peel the tangerines and separate them into segments. If desired, remove any seeds and white membrane for a cleaner presentation.
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin wedges or chunks.
Thinly slice the red onion into very fine rings or half-moons.
In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens as a base. Arrange the tangerine segments, avocado slices, and red onion on top.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad and gently toss to combine without mashing the avocado.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor and texture.
