Citrus Salad - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
Dressing
1 orange zest (reserve orange for salad)
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup light olive oil or 1/4 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons honey
salt and pepper
lettuce, of choice or a bag mixed greens
Preparation
-
Mix dressing ingredients together well and put in refrigerator.
I use some or all of the ingredients below depending on my mood! They all go well with the dressing!
Chopped red onion (about a tablespoon).
Chop up the orange reserved from the dressing.
Small can mandarin oranges.
Feta cheese
Chopped glazed walnuts (a small handful).
Small tart apple chopped (squeeze some lemon juice on apple after chopping to keep from browning).
Chopped Pear
Chopped Craisins(R) (The orange flavored ones are great).
Chopped green onion (1 or 2 stocks).
Avocado (best if you don't use the feta).
Chopped carrots (3 or 4 baby carrots).
Make a bed with desired greens or lettuce and add above ingredients. Then pour dressing over top. Good with cooked chicken or shrimp!
