Fennel Apple Salad

This crisp Fennel Apple Salad is best enjoyed when apples are at their peak in the fall. With crunchy fennel, peppery arugula, and a tangy apple cider vinaigrette, it’s a great combination of colors, flavors, and textures.

Ingredients :
  • For the apple cider vinaigrette
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • For the salad:
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 2 small fennel bulbs trimmed and thinly sliced,
  • 1 Honeycrisp apple or other sweet apple, halved, cored, and sliced 1/4-inch thick
  • 1 small red onion halved and thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
Directions :
  1. To make the vinaigrette, in a small bowl or in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, add olive oil, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, Dijon mustard, and salt and pepper to taste (I like ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper). Whisk or shake to combine.
  2. In a large bowl, add arugula, fennel, apple, red onion, and thyme. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and toss to combine.
