MIXED GREENS SALAD WITH ORANGE VINAIGRETTE
This is the kind of salad that doesn't require much work but looks super-pretty on the table. It's great for everything from brunch to an easy dinner party. You start off with a simple base of mixed greens (pick your fave!), then toss in handfuls of fresh blueberries, mandarin segments (or any kind of sweet citrus) and crunchy spiced nuts (again, any kind you like). The dressing is an easy vinaigrette that gets a special touch from orange juice. You'll have extra dressing you can refrigerate for another day.
