It's citrus season, so take advantage of what our trees are growing. And if there's something I love during citrus season, it's blood oranges. I love them in salads, over grilled chicken or fish or just as a snack. But this salad is a somewhat of a classic. Avocadoas are also in season making this salad even more delicious right now. Add a protein on the side and make it a complete meal.
