Osh Kosh Mesclun Salad with Avocado and Blood Oranges

== Description ==
This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Butler Estate in Irving, Texas in 1988.
* Contributed by Catsrecipes Y-Group
== Ingredients ==
* 2 small blood oranges
* 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
* ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* ¼ teaspoon salt
* ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* 6 cups mesclun or mixed young salad greens
* 4 red radishes trimmed and thinly sliced
* ½ small avocado peeled and sliced thin
* 2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
== Directions ==
# Working with 1 orange at a time cut a thin slice off the top and the bottom exposing the flesh.
# Stand the orange upright and using a sharp knife thickly cut off the peel and remove all pith.
# Holding the orange over small bowl cut along both sides of each section to free from membrane.
# As you work discard any seeds and let the sections and any juice fall into the bowl.
# Repeat with the second orange.
# When both oranges are sectioned squeeze the membranes into the bowl to extract all of the juice.
# In a small bowl whisk together 2 tablespoons orange juice vinegar and mustard.
# While whisking slowly add the olive oil in a thin stream until emulsified.
# Whisk in the salt and pepper.
# In a large bowl combine mesclun, radishes and orange sections.
# Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to mix well and coat evenly.
# To serve divide salad among individual plates.
# Top each portion with slices of avocado and sprinkle with the cheese.
