  • 6 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

Very nice variation on this salad, with a tasty dressing and a cool, refreshing bite. I had no parsley or bib lettuce, but used a mixture of arugula (thus the bite) and spinach. Also sliced in a bit of red onion. I reduced this by half and half again to make three servings. We had this for supper with the fabulous CL farfalle pasta with lamb ragu and ricotta.
