Notes
Serving tip: Serve with grilled white fish or salmon, pork or barbequed chicken.
To segment orange, remove peel and white pith. Using a small knife, cut down either side of the membrane to release segments.
Budget tips: Use 1 cos lettuce, leaves torn, instead of mixed leaves and save around $1.56 in total.
