I am obsessed with how gorgeous this bright colored salad is. It gives major summer vibes even though blood oranges are very much in season in the winter months. It is also a nice change from the typical lettuce based salads. The sweet dressing, creamy avocado, and red onion create a perfect balance.

Grapefruit would be a welcome addition, or even some fresh jalapeno for some spice if that is your thing.
