Orange & Watercress Salad w/Honey Mustard Dressing ---Kate C.

When we got our veggie list from SavRaw last week, I went hunting for watercress recipes and came across this one. Its simplicity made me flag it immediately!  Last night at dinner, we fought for seconds and thirds....SOOO good!


Orange & Watercress Salad with Honey-Mustard Dressing

Salad
1 large bunch watercress (about 1.5 pounds), rinsed and spun dry
2 oranges
**I added a handful or two of sliced almonds

Dressing
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp prepared mustard (not Dijon)
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
salt and pepper

Pinch off the tender shoots and leaves of the watercress, discarding the tough central stalk.  Peel oranges with a sharp knife, removing any of the white pith. Remove the sections of the orange by sliding a paring knife into the orange just beside the white membrane, right to the center, then turning your knife to “pop” the orange segment right out.

Arrange watercress and orange segments (toss in almonds) on a plate or in a bowl. Whisk together dressing ingredients and season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle over the salad and serve. Enjoy!

  1. I made this same recipe last weekend and everyone loved it. I added avocado and used white balsamic vinegar (kids fave). This was a delicious crowd pleaser!
