This bright and colorful salad is as flavorful as it is beautiful! It also takes 5 minutes to prepare - an added bonus. I personally love serving this with a hearty, winter meal like a stew or pasta. The tang from the citrus and creamy avocado provides perfect balance for a heavier main course. Or top this with chicken and/or nuts (toasted almonds, pistachios, and pine nuts would be a great addition) for a satisfying lunch!
Ingredients:
(serves 4)
2 large handfuls of arugula
1 head of radicchio, sliced thin
1 fennel bulb, sliced thin
2 oranges, peeled and sliced in rounds
1 avocado, sliced
For the dressing:
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Whisk together the dressing ingredients. Toss it with the arugula and radicchio and place in a serving bowl/dish. (You may not need all the dressing - you can always save the extra)!
Top with sliced fennel, orange, and avocado and serve!
