GOOD LIFE REFUGE 🐖🐄🐎🐐🦙🐑 // AVO-BLOOD ORANGE SALAD Community is everything. In my community, we have some of the most inspiring people, like Nicole and the entire team at @goodliferefuge 🏔️ When you walk the grounds of their sanctuary, you see just how much these animals are loved and cared for. This was one of the best days. Thank you Nicole and everyone at GLR for having us. avocado-blood orange salad enough mixed greens to fill a little over half a large salad bowl 1 shallot, diced 3 cloves garlic, minced salt and black pepper, as specified 4 blood oranges, 1 juiced, 1 zested and juice, and 2 left intact 2 naval oranges juice of 2 lemons, divided 1 granny smith apple 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 1 fennel bulb, topped, trimmed at the base, halved, and thinly sliced almonds and pumpkin seeds, toasted in a high heat pan for 2 mins 2/3 cup cashews, pounded or blended into fine bits 2 avocados, pitted and scooped out in pieces flaky salt (optional) saute shallot in a medium high pan with 1 tbsp olive oil for about 2 mins. add garlic and saute another 1 min. remove shallot & garlic from pan into a blender along with the zest of 1 blood orange, juice of 2 blood oranges, juice of 1 lemon, 1/4 cup EVOO, 2 tbsp white wine vinegar, a pinch or two of salt, and black pepper to taste. blend until smooth and remove to a mason jar with a lid on. shake the jar to emulsify as needed. take the remaining 2 blood oranges plus 2 naval oranges and peel them. use a sharp paring knife to cut small wedges of the citrus out (also called supreme; check out YouTube for help with this technique). add the sliced fennel to a small bowl with the juice of the remaining 1 lemon. add mixed greens to a large bowl with the oranges, avocado, fennel, toasted almonds + pumpkin seeds, and cashew parm. optionally season with more flaky salt and/or black pepper. pour over half the dressing, toss with wooden spoons until well-combined, then either add more dressing or serve immediately.
