- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

For the salad
- 5 oz baby arugula (about 5 lightly packed cups)

- 2 ripe avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced
- 2 navel oranges, supremed (peel and pith removed, segments cut free from membranes)

Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, fresh orange juice, honey, turmeric, and ginger until the honey dissolves. Drizzle in the olive oil in a thin, steady stream while whisking continuously until the dressing is emulsified and slightly thickened. Season with the sea salt and set aside.

Supreme the oranges: slice off the top and bottom of each orange, then stand it upright and cut away the peel and white pith following the curve of the fruit. Hold the orange over a bowl and cut each segment free from the membranes, letting the segments fall into the bowl. Squeeze the spent membranes over the bowl to catch any juice, then discard the membranes.
