This easy spinach and citrus salad celebrates this seasonal fruit.  For this recipe you can use whatever citrus fruits are available to you including tangerines, grapefruits, oranges, lemons, and tangelos.  To assemble this salad, combine the orange segments with radishes and black olives with the dressing and allow them to marinate for 20 minutes before placing them atop the spinach.  At this point, feel free to add cheese or nuts.  Walnuts would be especially complimentary.
