Mushroom Fennel Salad

Elegant, unique, and refreshingly delicious.

1h 6-8
Easy Vegetarian Pescatarian Gluten Free Low Carb Vegan Parve

Contains: Tree nuts, Soy

Directions

Prepare the Sautéed Mushrooms

  1. Heat oils in a large frying pan over medium

    heat. Add mushrooms and all other ingredients. Sauté until the mushrooms are lightly browned, about five minutes.

  2. Lower the heat and continue sautéing for five more minutes until mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally.

Prepare the Dressing

  1. Place all dressing ingredients in a small container. Shake well until combined. If

    you prefer a lot of dressing on your salad,

    double or triple the dressing recipe.

Prepare the Salad

  1. To serve, line a platter with lettuce. Sprinkle fennel shavings over the lettuce. (You can cut them into smaller pieces, if desired, or leave them as is.) Scatter grapefruit pieces around. Spoon sautéed mushrooms down the center of the salad.

  2. Drizzle dressing over the salad right before serving.

  3. Alternately, layer all salad ingredients in a salad bowl. Mix together. Top with mushrooms and dressing.

Tips:
Fennel can be prepared a day or two in advance and kept in a ziplock bag until using.

I highly recommend doubling or this salad. It’s a fabulous topping for baked potatoes and meat (think steak!), and it’s absolutely delicious on a slice of sourdough bread.

Notes:
The walnut oil adds welcome yet subtle undertones of nut flavor. I highly recommend it. (I buy extra for Pesach, refrigerate until it expires, and use it sparingly.) If not available, sub oil of your choice.
