Orange & Ginger Salad

This orange & ginger salad is the perfect side during those warm summer months. The sweetness and freshness of the orange is a great compliment to the ginger and mustard dressing. It is a very simple recipe that comes together in no time. It can be served as a side for 4 to 6 people but I also like to split it in half and serve it as a meal with an added protein such as grilled salmon.

Here are the steps to create this delicious orange and ginger salad:

Let’s start with the dressing. Place all the ingredients in a small mason jar and give it a good shake until well combined.

Serve and enjoy.
