Equipment

Notes

For the best way to juice the orange for the dressing, I highly recommend a citrus squeezer.

Like this dressing? Try my Honey Citrus Herb Dressing which acts as a marinade and makes for a delicious citrus salad dressing!

I recommend drizzling the citrus salad dressing after plating as each individual has a preference for dressing their salads. This also prevents soggy salad leftovers!

To make this recipe vegan, substitute maple syrup for the honey.

If you have a nut allergy, please omit the almonds and use caution with the ingredients.
