Autumn Salad
  • Prep: 25 mins

  • Ready in: 33 mins
  • Serves:

Ingredients

  • 3 large navel oranges
  • 1 bottle (8 oz) olive oil and vinegar dressing (such as Paul Newman’s)
  • 10 oz each) Italian salad blend
  • 1 bag (5 oz) baby arugula and salad blend
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 11/2 logs (6 oz) fresh cranberry-cinnamon goat cheese (chèvre) or plain goat cheese, cut in 24 slices (see Note)
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted

Cooking Instructions

Grate 1 Tbsp zest from oranges. With a sharp knife, cut off peel and white part (pith) of oranges. Cut oranges in half, then slice. Add zest to bottled dressing; shake to mix.

Place salad blends and red onion in a large bowl. Add dressing; toss to mix and coat. Arrange on salad plates. Top with oranges and cheese; sprinkle with pumpkin seeds.

Note: To neatly slice a log of goat cheese, hold both ends of a length of sturdy thread, slide it under the log, then pull up each end and firmly cross the ends over each other.

Planning Tip: The pumpkin seeds can be toasted up to 1 week ahead. Bag and store at room temperature. The zest can be grated and added to the dressing, and the oranges and cheese can be sliced, up to 2 days ahead. Bag and refrigerate oranges and cheese separately with wax paper between cheese slices. Assemble just before serving.
