1. Wash and pat dry the mixed baby greens and arugula. Place them in a large salad bowl.
2. Rinse the strawberries and blueberries. Slice the strawberries into thin pieces and add them to the bowl with the blueberries.
3. Halve the apricots, remove the pits, and slice them into thin wedges. Add the apricots to the salad.
4. Crumble the goat cheese evenly over the salad.
5. Toast the sliced almonds in a small dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until golden and fragrant. Let them cool slightly, then sprinkle them on top of the salad.
