Before serving, squeeze ½ blood orange over the salad to add an extra sweet citrus flavor.

In a large bowl place all the above prepared items. Drizzle whisked dressing, taking your time to stop and toss the salad.

Peel off the wilted outer layers and slice the fennel crosswise. Wash thoroughly.

Remove the stalks from the fennel and place off to the side. Cut the bulb in half, and then cut the half in quarters.

Notes

This is a great winter dish that takes advantage of fresh citrus fruits while they’re in season. As this is such a colorful salad, it looks beautiful when placed on a white plate or salad bowl.
