Orange Fennel Salad
Don’t get me wrong – 2010 hasn’t exactly been filled with raw veggies and fruit. Conversely, I’ve already had fish and chips (paired with a few Guinness), a trip to a bin candy store, several cheese platters and what seems like endless bowls of ice cream. Since there always has to be a balance, I was in search of a hearty, winter salad and this one, with orange, fennel and arugula, fit the bill. All the flavors complement each other so perfectly and while it looks fancy and indulgent, really only takes minutes to make.

Okay, well, that looks absolutely delicious. Thanks for sharing these tasty looking pictures… HEALTHY pictures, that is.
2010 has been incredibly indulgent for me so far… Over the past 4 days I have had meals at Mozza Osteria, Tavern (in Brentwood), Katsuya, Street, Akasha, Newsroom, In n’ out, and Bay Cities. My stomach hurts just reading over that list!! (good thing I head back to New York tomorrow!)

I’ve reinstated my “eat healthy” mantra for 2010. It’s tough to make the transition after eating piles of Christmas cookies! But this looks phenomenal!
Looks really good! I’m pretty good about eating healthy since I hate greasy food, but I tend to always make the same dishes since I am such a bad cook! Will definitely give this a try!
I am making a giveaway on my blog. Check it and leave a comment for a chance to win!
I’ve only recently gotten over my fear of fennel, and this sounds utterly fantastic!
I love fennel…I haven’t mastered that skill of slicing the oranges in that way…so sad, my cable provider just dumped the Food Network so I am in Ina withdrawal…I really like that texture combo- the crunchiness of the fennel and the smooth orange…it must be great!
I think I might try this salad at home and see what the boyfriend thinks. It looks delicious and healthy! xoxo

Any time salad actually looks appealing is a triumph.
Mmmm.. your pictures look sooo appetizing! and make the salad much more appealing than just from the recipe! Good, clean, salad!

The pictures are making me hungry!! Looks like a great salad!

I love oranges in my salads, but fennel is often too strong of a flavor for me. But your dramatic declaration makes me want to try it!
BTW — what kind of camera do you use? Your photos always look great.
This is exactly what I need. a detox!

I’m so glad that you mentioned you’d been eating ice-cream, or I would have felt really guilty for the chocolate that I just inhaled! Lovely looking salad, though. It’s still just too cold for that kind of thing in London – it’s vegetable soup and crusty bread all the way! Send us some of your L.A. sun….please?

Sounds delish. Another great use of fennel is pairing it with thin slices of parm, drizzel with olive oil and serve with a warm wheat pita! YUMMY.
Also, I am having a GIVE-A-WAY on my site! Check it out, and let your readers know. Thanks

After all the Holiday festivities a good fresh salad is just what I need!
I was browsing through your blog and saw you in Westwood…I live right around the corner.
Beautiful pictures and great blog!
This looks like pure heaven – I love the addition of fruit in salads!!
yum, we make a similar salad, love the fennel!
I just made grapefruit and fennel salad two nights ago! I added some mint to the salad, and served it with seared tuna. So good! It’s such a pretty dish.
Hmm orange in a salad. I’ve never tried it but i’ve seen lots of recipes for orange and beetroot salads too. I’ll have to try it
