Roasted Turkey Salad with Orange Vinaigrette

For holiday leftovers from a Thanksgiving or Christmas roast turkey, or any time you've cooked a turkey breast.

Orange Vinaigrette:

1/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
Salt to taste
Freshly milled pepper to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Salad:
4 cups torn salad greens
2 cups cooked turkey breast, cut into julienne strips
1 (11 oz.) can mandarin orange segments, drained
1/2 cup sliced celery

Method

In jar with tight-fitting lid, combine all vinaigrette ingredients and shake, shake, shake until dressing emulsifies. (Yes, you can use a food processor, but it's not as much fun.)

In large serving bowl, combine all salad ingredients, and pour over the vinaigrettes. Toss gently. If you like, you can garnish with fresh blueberries or strawberries.

Serves: 4
