Fennel, Pecan & Summer Squash Salad

9/6/2022

0 Comments

 
If you’ve ever had Fennel before, you might have noticed it has a mild licorice flavour because it’s related to anise.
It’s loaded with fibre, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and iron, as well as vitamins K, C, A, E, and B6.

Fennel makes a delicious side dish for beef, fish, or chicken dishes. To turn it into a main dish, add cooked grains or tuna. Either way, you'll LOVE this recipe.
Picture
(makes 6 servings)

  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) apple cider vinegar
  • 6 small celery stalks, very thinly sliced
  • 1 fennel bulb, very thinly sliced
  • 1 small summer squash, cut in half lengthwise and then sliced crosswise
  • 1 15-oz (425 grams) can of cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup (75 grams) of toasted pecans, chopped

Whisk together the oil and vinegar in a bowl, and add the celery, fennel, summer squash, and beans, tossing well. Season with salt and pepper.
​

Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour to chill. Stir in the pecans and additional salt and pepper (if needed) before serving. Enjoy!
