Instructions

For the dressing, whisk together the lemon juice, dijon, honey, and orange zest. Season with a pinch of salt. Slowly whisk in olive oil until emulsified. Alternatively, add all the dressing ingredients to a small jar and shake vigorously until emulsified.
Spread arugula onto a serving dish. Layer with grapefruit, blood orange, orange, and avocado slices. Lightly season with salt.
Sprinkle with almonds and fresh mint over the top.
When ready to serve, dress the salad or serve the vinaigrette on the side.

Notes

Serving size ranges from 1-6, depending on whether it's a main or side dish.
For a party or event, I recommend doubling or tripling the dressing.
Use any variety of citrus you'd like - clementines, kumquats, satsumas, etc. would all work.
