After months of eating winter food (aka basically meat and starch), my body finally got through to my brain and screamed "YOU NEED SOMETHING FRESH!!" Thanks to my Imperfect Produce deliveries, I had the inspiration to come up with this dressing and most of the ingredients for the salad. It was, of course, DELICIOUS! Using standard citrus is fine... I just had Cara Cara oranges and Meyer lemons, so that's what I used. Mix it up with whatever you have and/or like.
Citrus Dressing-
1/4 C. extra virgin olive oil
1/4 C. vegetable oil
2 t. orange zest
1/3 C. fresh orange juice (Cara Cara or blood orange, if available)
2 T. fresh lemon juice (Meyer lemon, if available)
2 T. fresh lime juice
2 T. honey
2 t. Dijon mustard
1/4 t. salt
Combine ingredients in jar with tight-fitting lid. Shake until emulsified.
Lightly toss greens of your choice with dressing, just to coat. Top with items of your choice, and drizzle with a little more dressing.
