Add a palate-cleansing pop of color and refreshing flavor to your next meal with a quick and easy recipe for Citrus Salad with Honey Dressing.

With Thanksgiving behind us and Christmas and Hanukkah ahead of us, should we take a minute for a little caloric breather? If you’re still feeling stuffed and have made your way through all of those re-worked Turkey Day leftovers (waffles! pancakes! muffins!), this bright and bold Citrus Salad with Honey Dressing is the answer to our my-spandex-pants-need-a-break prayers.

Winter screams “Citrus all the things!” And this show-stopping dish is guaranteed to impress, thanks to the presentation.

Peeling the citrus is the most time-consuming part of this recipe, but it’s important to remove as much of the white pith as possible to steer clear of any bitterness. I’ve opted for a trio of oranges, blood oranges, and grapefruits to maximize on color and complementary flavors. A few thin slices of red onion add bite while pomegranate arils add a burst of juicy flavor and textural contrast to the plate.

And to finish off your rainbow of flavor? A quick-fix honey dressing to balance out the sweet with the sour . This is a simple citrus salad that’s fast enough for weeknight meals but dressed up enough for weekend brunches or dinner parties. And just like your go-to little black dress, it can be as casual or as fancy as your heart desires!
