I've only made this once, but I quite liked it, so I'm posting it so I remember to make it again.

Prep time: 15 min Cook time: 5 min Ready in: 20 minutes

Serves: 6

3/4 cup walnut halves

10 ounces mixed salad greens with arugula (I couldn't find any arugula when I made this)

2 large navel oranges, peeled and

sectioned

1/2 cup sliced red onion

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2/3 cup orange juice

1/4 cup white sugar (or agave)

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese (or feta or no cheese)

1. Place the walnuts in a skillet over medium heat. Cook 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly browned.
2. In a large bowl, toss the toasted walnuts, salad greens, oranges, and red onion.
3. In a large jar with a lid, mix the olive oil, vegetable oil, orange juice, sugar, vinegar, mustard, oregano, and pepper. Seal jar, and shake to mix.
4. Divide the salad greens mixture into individual servings. To serve, sprinkle with Gorgonzola cheese, and drizzle with the dressing mixture.
