1 Make the Salad
Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Drain mandarin oranges. Trim cucumber and thinly slice into rounds. In a mixing bowl, combine dressing and Sriracha (to taste). Toss or gently combine spring mix, cucumbers, and mandarin oranges with Sriracha-dressing mixture. Garnish with goat cheese (crumbling with your hands, if needed) and wonton strips. Bon appétit!
