Directions

Whisk together lime juice, vinegar, honey and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Remove peel and all of white pith from the oranges with a serrated knife. Working over a large bowl to catch juices, cut between membranes with a paring knife to release whole orange segments into bowl. Halve avocados and remove pits. Cut into thin slices.

Place baby spinach on serving plates and top with orange-avocado mixture. Sprinkle with Hawaiian red sea salt to taste. Serve immediately.
