Save the Kales! - Winter Orange Fennel Salad with Avocado (Vegan, Gluten Free, Soy Free)

If you're craving some freshness and bright crunch in the middle of winter, this salad uses typically "cozy" foods like fennel bulbs and oranges (I picture orange slices floating around mulled cider) for a vibrant salad.

Be a winter warrior, work to proactively overcome S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder), or just eat cause it tastes delicious. I gotchu. xo

ORANGE AND FENNEL RAW WINTER SALAD

PRODUCE
2 raw fennel bulbs, sliced very thin (use mandolin if you have one)
6 navel oranges, all but one peeled and sliced into chunks
zest of one orange
1/2 red onion, sliced thin
1 avocado, cubed

1. Add all the produce EXCEPT 1 of the oranges to a large bowl, and mix together. (Add the slices of 5 oranges, keep one aside.)

*Note: A mandolin is not necessary, but it’s a great time to use one if you have it. If not, carefully slice veggies as thin as you can with a knife.

DRESSING
2 TBSP olive oil
juice of 1 orange
1 tsp dijon mustard
fresh ground black pepper to taste
chopped fresh parsley for garnish

1.Whisk in small bowl, pour over vegetables, and mix.
2. Tastes best if served about 30 minutes after adding the dressing to the salad.

THAT'S ALL! Easy peasy, you got this.
