Looking for a quick light lunch? I usually am. Here’s a fantastic refreshing salad, full of many of the anti-aging superfoods!

What Do I Need?

2 oranges
1 grapefruit (we used red)
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
sugar or sweetener to taste
1 bag of spring mix salad greens
1/4 cup slivered almonds

How Do I Make It?

1. Cut the peel and white membrane off of each of the citrus fruits and then cut the fruit sections into bite sized pieces, removing the seeds as you go along. Do this in a bowl so that you can save the juice from the fruit that will come out as you work with it.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, olive oil, vinegar and sugar/sweetener. Pour this dressing over the fruit and stir to coat.

3. Serve by placing some of the salad greens on a plate, top with the fruit mixture, and then some of the almonds.
