Mixed Greens Salad with Honey-Orange Dressing
The sweetness in the citrus-based dressing balances the bitterness of the radicchio. Prepare and refrigerate the dressing up to one day before the brunch; stir well, and toss with greens just before serving. This easy, all-purpose salad goes with almost any early summer dinner.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)
