Ingredients

  • 2 whole oranges
  • 1 whole grapefruit
  • 1 whole lemon
  • 1 whole lime
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 whole avocado
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

Peel and segment the oranges and grapefruit, removing all the pith. Place the segments in a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Juice the lemon and lime into a small bowl. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the juice for the dressing.

Step 3

In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the reserved lemon and lime juice, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 4

Rinse and pat dry the salad greens. Add them to the salad bowl with the citrus segments.

Step 5

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin wedges and add to the salad.

Step 6

Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine, making sure the dressing coats everything evenly.

Step 7

Chop the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them over the top of the salad for a pop of freshness and flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately as a delicious and refreshing side dish or light main course.
