Ingredients:

Salad:

• 5 ounces spinach (about 6 cups), watercress, arugula, or other greens
• 1 avocado, sliced or diced and sprinkled with lime juice
• 1 navel orange, peeled and sectioned
• 1/2 red onion (about 1/2 cup), thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds

Dressing:

• 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 tablespoon orange juice
• 2 teaspoons lime juice or lemon juice
• Pinch of orange, lime, or lemon zest
• Salt, to taste

Directions:

To make the dressing, whisk the oil, vinegar, honey, juice, and zest in a small bowl until well blended; set aside.

For the salad, slice the avocado and sprinkle with lemon or lime juice to prevent it from oxidizing, or turning brown.

On individual plates, add spinach, then top with orange, avocado, onion slices, and seeds. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with salt.

Serves 2.
