Fennel-Orange Salad Recipe

Every day I try to include some kind of salad in my diet.  I eat a ton of fruit throughout the day, but it is very important to eat enough green leafy vegetables too.  Usually I like to make big green salads filled with different veggies or fruit.  But, sometimes I like to try something a little different.

This salad is  based off a Sicilian recipe, and it’s such a nice mix with the oranges together with the fennel and the cranberries, it gives it a sweet and sour taste that I just love! In case you have never tried fennel it has a sweet, mild anise flavor to it.  Fennel is very good for digestion whether in teas,  the seeds, or the vegetable itself.  This recipe is quick and easy but tastes fantastic.

Serves: 2 small servings or 1 large serving

Recipe:

1 fennel large bulb, sliced in pieces lengthwise

2 oranges peeled and cut into large chunks

1 handful fresh parsley chopped (or you can use mint instead)

1 handful dried unsulfured cranberries

juice from 1 lemon (or if you prefer sweet you can use an orange)

1 Tbsp coconut sugar

Directions:

Clean and slice fennel in lengthwise pieces (to see how to prep fennel click here).  Mix in chunks of orange, and chopped parsley.  Top with dried cranberries.  Mix in a small bowl juice from 1 lemon with a tablespoon of raw date sugar and use as dressing over the salad.  Optional chill in the fridge 20 minutes.

Simple as that!  Boun Appetito!
