Left to his own devices, my fiancee (The Gent) will eat asparagus as the vegetable for every meal. So when I get him to like something new, it's a small triumph. I tossed this salad together for the first time last winter, as a prelude to a lazy Sunday supper of Marcella Hazan's Tomato Butter Sauce, and the Gent has been requesting it almost daily ever since.

<br />It’s just mixed greens, orange segments, almonds, & dried cranberries, dressed with a little vinaigrette made from the juice of the orange and a little olive oil.
<br />I am obsessed with Cara Cara Oranges in the winter– their color is so vibrant, and their flavor is more sweet than acidic. Blood oranges would also be delicious.
