Brighten Up Your Plate With This Refreshing Citrus Salad

Combat the winter blues in 10 ingredients or less with this sweet and colorful side this citrus season!

Just because the trees are bare and the mercury has dropped below freezing doesn’t mean there’s nothing exciting at the supermarket. In January, stores flood with a rainbow of citrus (e.g., blood oranges, pink Cara Caras, honey-sweet tangerines, and more) that are great for eating but even better for enlivening a dead-of-winter salad. Serves 2-4
