Citrus, Spinach, and Avocado Salad with a Tangerine Shallot Dressing

Since citrus is on right now, and I am obsessed with it, I had to try this salad from The Joy of Cooking, All About Salads and Dressings book. I am not in love with the book and honestly this is the first salad I really liked from it. Don't let that deter you though. This is a refreshing and delicious salad!
