Orange & Fennel Salad

This is the first year that I really learned to appreciate citrus season and grew a real fondness for oranges, particularly cara cara oranges. The color is gorgeous and the flavor is sweet but not too sweet - I could eat them all day long.

In this dish, I paired them with thinly sliced fennel, which adds a unique licorice flavor.

Avocado and pumpkin seeds add healthy fats and fibre to round out the dish

Ingredients

1 cara cara orange, peel removed and thinly sliced

1 fennel, thinly sliced

2 tablespoon dill, finely chopped

2 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Salt

2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds

1/2 avocado, diced

Fennel fronds

Directions

Add the orange, fennel and dill to a large mixing bowl then add the olive oil, red wine vinegsr and some salt. Mix well to combine.

Transfer to a serving dish then top with the pumpkin seeds and avocado as well as a few fennel fronds.
