This recipe is a very fresh and zesty salad. I've adapted the original recipe from 101 Cookbooks to include orange wedges, although I'm sure apple would also taste good.
Ingredients
1 medium zucchini, sliced into paper-thin coins
2 small fennel bulbs, trimmed and shaved as thin as possible*
2/3 c fresh dill, chopped
1/3 c lemon juice
1/3 c olive oil
1 t salt
several handfuls rocket/arugula, chopped
2 t honey
1/2 c pine nuts, toasted
1/2 c feta cheese, crumbled
2 oranges, cut into segments/wedges
*If you think your fennel or zucchini slices are too thick, you can blanch them under hot water for 2-3 minutes (drain immediately to prevent over-cooking)
Instructions
1) Combine zucchini, fennel, dill, and toss with lemon juice, honey, olive oil, and salt.
2) Set aside and marinate for 20-30 minutes.
3) Scoop zucchini/fennel mixture into a new bowl, leaving behind liquids.
4) Add arugula and orange, then add 1/2 lemon juice mixture and toss. Adjust amount of lemon sauce to taste.
5) Sprinkle with pine nuts and feta.
