First, peel and slice the oranges and grapefruit. Remove the white pith; it's super bitter and will ruin your salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, poppy seeds, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust the sweetness or seasoning if you need to.
In a large serving bowl, place the spring mix. Top with the citrus segments, pomegranate seeds, and chopped mint.
Drizzle with some of the dressing and gently toss to combine or serve the dressing on the side. Add the goat cheese and sliced almonds on top.
