Instructions
For the salad
- Place the mixed greens, oranges, dried cranberries and pecans in a large bowl.
For the dressing
- Place all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, then whisk until smooth.
- Drizzle 1/2 cup of the dressing over the salad, then gently toss to coat. You may have dressing left over.
