MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD

Mandarin Orange Salad is a light and fresh salad that is exploding with flavor! Made with tender spring mix, bright orange mandarins peeking through the greens, walnuts, pecans, deep red dried cranberries, and a fresh Citrus Salad Dressing. This Mandarin Orange Salad is DELICIOUS! Plus it is incredibly easy to make, which is always a bonus for hosting guests or your busy nights! I got the inspiration for this salad from my favorite restaurant in Puerto Vallarta: SONORA GRILL PRIME! It is a must order when I'm there. It's a perfect mix of textures and flavors: fresh greens, sweetness from the mandarin oranges, crunch from the nuts, tartness from the dried cranberries. It all comes together in harmony in your every bite.
