This salad is a celebration of bright, tangy citrus flavors that will awaken your taste buds! Creamy avocado is paired with juicy oranges and grapefruit segments, crisp fennel, and a zesty citrus vinaigrette for a refreshing and satisfying dish.

Instructions:

Prepare the vinaigrette: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, grapefruit juice, lime zest, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, gently combine the mixed greens, orange segments, grapefruit segments, fennel slices, and avocado.

Dress and serve: Drizzle the desired amount of vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of fresh citrus flavors!

Tips:

For a more intense citrus flavor, add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the vinaigrette.

Toasted slivered almonds or chopped pistachios add a delightful crunch to this salad.

If you prefer a milder onion flavor, substitute thinly sliced shallots for the red onion.
