(NEW Recipe 🍊) Simple Italian Orange and Fennel Salad 🥗
|
Hey Reader! If there’s one thing I love about Italian cooking, it’s how a handful of simple ingredients can taste like you put in way more effort than you actually did. This Orange and Fennel Salad is exactly that kind of recipe — bright, fresh, and a little bit fancy, but secretly ridiculously easy. It’s the kind of dish you throw together when winter produce still feels exciting, when citrus is at its peak, and when you want something that wakes up your whole plate. Sweet juicy oranges, crisp fennel, good olive oil, a couple of toppings… that’s basically the whole story. Simple Italian Orange and Fennel SaladBright, crunchy, and effortlessly elegant, this classic Southern Italian Orange and Fennel Salad pairs sweet oranges with crisp fennel and a simple extra-virgin olive oil dressing. It’s the kind of side dish you can throw together in minutes, but it always looks (and tastes) like you tried.
