Ingredients
For the salad
- 4 cups arugula
- 1 cup sliced apple such as Honeycrisp or Pink Lady
- 1 cup fennel bulb thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup celery thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup candied pecans roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons fennel fronds chopped, optional
For the dressing
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon shallot minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
For the salad
- Place the arugula, apples, fennel, celery and pecans in a large bowl.
For the dressing
- Place all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk until well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the salad. Toss until well combined.
- Sprinkle with fennel fronds if desired, then serve immediately.
Notes
- I use a mandoline to cut my fennel into very thin slices.
- You can use any type of apples you like. I typically go for Pink Lady or Honeycrisp, but other great options include Fuji, Braeburn or Gala.
- Fennel salad is best when served immediately as the arugula will wilt if it sits in the dressing for too long.
