Prepare the salad base by adding mixed salad greens to a large serving bowl.
Peel the oranges, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Slice the oranges into segments and set them aside.
Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Allow them to cool completely.
Thinly slice the red onion into rings and add it to the salad greens.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Add the orange segments, toasted walnuts, and crumbled feta cheese to the salad bowl.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
