Strawberry & Orange Salad

I love the flavor of oranges and strawberries together.  They are both in season right now and can be found for a reasonable price so I figured I would combine them in a salad.  I made an orange vinaigrette to go along!   I brought it to our luncheon group last week and it was a hit!

1 large head green leaf lettuce, chopped

 Whisk together ingredients for dressing and add to salad just before serving.
