Winter Citrus Salad

Savor the Winter Citrus Salad—a vibrant mix of 10 ounces of greens, sliced grapefruit, oranges, and diced red onion. Enhance the medley with creamy avocado slices and 2 ounces of crumbled feta or goat cheese. Elevate the texture with a sprinkling of 1/4 cup of pecan halves. The ensemble achieves perfection with a drizzle of Lemon Tahini Dressing, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.

Each bite offers a burst of citrusy freshness, balanced with the creamy richness of avocado and cheese. The crispness of red onion and the satisfying crunch of pecans add layers of delight. This salad is a winter celebration on a plate, a nutritious and flavorful indulgence. Immerse yourself in the invigorating taste of the season.
