Ingredients

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 head romaine lettuce - rinsed, dried and chopped
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 8 wedges
8 medium radishes, thinly sliced
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and chopped

Steps:

Combine olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a 1-pint container or jar with tight-fitting lid. Tightly close the lid and shake until the ingredients are well blended. Refrigerate until ready to toss with the salad, or up to 3 days.
Combine chopped romaine, tomato wedges, sliced radishes, sliced red onion, and chopped avocado in a large bowl. Add as much dressing as you like, and toss all ingredients. Refrigerate unused salad dressing.
Serve dressed, tossed salads on individual salad plates.
