Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and gently peel. Dice the avocados into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
Peel the oranges, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Slice the oranges into rounds and cut each round into quarters.
Rinse and pat dry the baby spinach, then transfer it to a large mixing bowl.
Thinly slice the red onion into small strips and add it to the bowl with the spinach.
Toast the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Gently toss the spinach, red onion, avocado, and orange pieces in the large mixing bowl. Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad and toss again to coat.
Sprinkle the toasted slivered almonds over the top for added crunch and serve immediately.
