Ingredients

1 medium zucchini
1 medium cucumber
1 medium carrot
3 medium oranges
3 cups fresh baby spinach
4 green onions, finely chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup golden raisins, optional
VINAIGRETTE:
1/4 cup olive oil
4 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped green onion
2 teaspoons honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

Using a vegetable peeler, shave zucchini, cucumber and carrot lengthwise into very thin strips., Finely grate enough zest from oranges to measure 2 tablespoons. Cut 1 orange crosswise in half; squeeze juice from orange to measure 1/2 cup. Reserve zest and juice for vinaigrette. Cut a thin slice from the top and bottom of remaining oranges; stand oranges upright on a cutting board. With a knife, cut off peel and outer membrane from orange. Cut along the membrane of each segment to remove fruit., In a large bowl, combine spinach, orange sections, green onions, walnuts, salt, pepper and, if desired, raisins. Add vegetable ribbons; gently toss to combine. In a small bowl, combine vinaigrette ingredients. Add reserved orange zest and juice; whisk until blended. Drizzle half of the vinaigrette over salad; toss to coat. Serve with remaining vinaigrette.

Aged pecorino Toscano cheese is fairly hard; young pecorino Toscano is softer and milder. You can use good-quality provolone cheese instead, if you like.
