Steps:
- Make the salad: Quarter fennel bulb lengthwise, and cut out core. Very thinly slice fennel lengthwise into strips using a mandoline or sharp knife. Cover with a damp paper towel in a glass dish.
- Grate carrots, then beets, on the large holes of a box grater. Arrange side by side with fennel. Keep covered with damp paper towel, and wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Make the vinaigrette: Toast fennel seeds in a small skillet over medium-high heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl, and add orange juice, vinegar, lemon juice, shallot, and 1 teaspoon salt. Gradually whisk in oil.
- Toss fennel, beets, and carrots with vinaigrette in a large bowl. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice off the beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Discard the beet greens. Scrub the beets thoroughly, and then loosely wrap each one in foil.
- Transfer the wrapped beets to baking sheet lined with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets every 20 minutes or so. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before rewrapping. Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the middle of the beet.
- Cool the beets until they can comfortably be handled. Hold one of the beets in a paper towel and use the edges to rub the skin away. The skin should peel away easily; if it doesn't, the beets likely need to cook for a little longer. Slice the peeled beets into wedges.
- Combine the beet wedges, mache, goat cheese, avocado, and shaved fennel on a large serving platter and drizzle with basil vinaigrette. Sprinkle the pepitas on top and serve immediately.

SHAVED CARROT AND FENNEL SALAD WITH HONEY VINAIGRETTE
I love the flavors in this slaw-type salad. The licorice flavor from the fennel, the sweetness of the carrots, and the tangy-tart apricots meld to create a party in your mouth. And it's so colorful, too. Even better, this salad gets better over time, so it's a great make-ahead side dish.

FENNEL, BEET AND ORANGE SALAD WITH CUMIN VINAIGRETTE
One of the things I love best about this refreshing salad is that it doesn't wilt, making it a a great choice for a potluck or a buffet. There's a nice contrast of textures going on, with the crunchy fennel, soft beets and juicy oranges. The dish has Moroccan overtones, with the combination of oranges and beets, and the cumin in the dressing.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°. Wash beets, leaving some water on skins. Wrap individually in foil; place on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until beets are tender when pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, using a sharp knife, cut all peel and white pith from all oranges; discard. Working over a medium bowl, cut between membranes of 2 blood oranges to release segments into bowl; squeeze juice from membranes into bowl and discard membranes. Slice remaining blood orange and Cara Cara orange crosswise into thin rounds. Place sliced oranges in bowl with the segments. Add lemon juice and lime juice.
- Peel cooled beets. Slice 2 beets crosswise into thin rounds. Cut remaining 2 beets into wedges. Strain citrus juices; reserve. Layer beets and oranges on plates, dividing evenly. Arrange fennel and onion over beets. Spoon reserved citrus juices over, then drizzle salad generously with oil. Season to taste with coarse sea salt and pepper. Let salad stand for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Garnish salad with cilantro leaves.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and vibrant vegetables. This will ensure the best flavor and texture for your salad.
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to slice the vegetables thinly. This will help them cook evenly and absorb the dressing better.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when roasting the vegetables. This will prevent them from steaming instead of roasting.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Make the dressing while the vegetables are roasting. This will give the flavors time to meld together.
- Taste the dressing before adding it to the salad. You may need to adjust the seasonings to your liking.
- Toss the salad gently to coat the vegetables in the dressing. Over-tossing can break down the vegetables.
- Serve the salad immediately. This is when it is at its best, with the vegetables still warm and tender.
