1. To prepare vinaigrette: Put orange-juice concentrate in a blender with vinegar or lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper and blend until well combined. With blender running, slowly stream in oil to create a smooth emulsion. The vinaigrette will keep, covered and refrigerated, for several weeks.

2. Prepare almonds and set aside.

3. When ready to serve, toss greens with about 1/3 cup vinaigrette and distribute among salad plates. Scatter almonds over each salad and serve.
