Citrus Salad Toss

Made this delicious salad for a New Year's Eve party. It was so yummy, and I got RAVE reviews from those who were at the party!!! Definitely will be on the high end of my yummy salad's list of recipes!!!!
P.S. I didn't add the sugared pecans because the house we were at for New Years Eve is a "Nut-Free house" due to allergies. It was still good without the pecans!!!

Romaine or spring mix
1 red onion, sliced
1 large orange, peeled and sliced
1 pt. strawberries, cut up
2 avocados, cut up
sugared pecans

Dressing:
1/2 cup oil
1/4 cup lime juice
2 T orange juice
2 T sugar
1 tsp grated lime zest
1 tsp grated orange zest

For sugared pecans, mix the sugar and pecans in skillet. Cook over low heat until the sugar melts, stirring to coat well. Be patient, this can take awhile. However, you want to be vigilant because when the sugar finally melts, you have to move fast. Put on wax paper to cool.

Mix all dressing ingredients and let sit for awhile so the flavors can blend.
