Ingredients

The Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

The Salad:

  • 3 large fennel bulbs
  • 2 Granny Smith apples cored + halved
  • 3 celery stalks
  • 1/2 cup pecans toasted
  • 4 ounces Parmesan shaved with a vegetable peeler
  • fennel fronds roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Use a mandolin to thinly slice the fennel bulbs, apples, and celery stalks. You can also use a sharp knife if a mandolin isn't available--try to slice as thinly as possible. Place in a large bowl and toss to combine.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey, dijon, salt, and pepper. Slowly, while whisking, add the olive oil.
  • Drizzle dressing over the salad. Add the toasted pecans and toss to combine.
  • Plate salad, and top with freshly grated parmesan and fennel fronds. Enjoy!
