Green and Gold Salad with Citrus Ranch Dressing

This is a hearty salad my mom makes, and it's a nice change of pace from the usual. It's also pretty and a nutritional powerhouse. I'm posting it now because I need to return the recipe card to my mom, but it's really more of a fall salad or early spring.

Green and Gold Salad with Citrus Ranch Dressing

  • 3 c. chopped fresh broccoli
  • 1 1/2 c. diced mango
  • 1 large navel orange, sectioned (and cut in halves/thirds if you prefer)
  • 1/2 c. toasted pecans
  • 1 (6-oz) package fresh spinach

Toss together. Toss with dressing to taste.

Citrus Ranch Dressing

  • 3/4 c. Ranch dressing
  • 2 t. grated orange rind
  • 3 T. fresh orange juice

Mix together thoroughly.

~Serves 4-6
