BEET ORANGE AND FENNEL SALAD

Beet Orange and Fennel Salad- an energizing vegan salad that can be repurposed into grain bowls for mid week lunches.

Provided by Sylvia Fountaine

Categories     Vegan Salad

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 - 1 ½ pounds cooked beets- steamed or roasted, peeled and cut into wedges
2 oranges ( feel free to sub 1 blood orange), peeled, cut into bite sized pieces
1 medium fennel bulb, cored and shaved thinly
⅛-¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
⅛ cup fresh dill or mint- chopped
⅛ cup fresh italian parsley - chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons honey ( or vegan alternative- agave, maple)
¼ tablespoon salt and pepper, more to taste

Steps:

  • Place the cooked cut beets, oranges and fennel in a medium bowl. Add fresh herbs.
  • Add dressing ingredients, and toss. ( It helps to warm the honey first if using- I just place the jar of honey in a bowl of hot water to loosen it.) Alternatively, you could whisk the dressing ingredients separately in a small bowl, then toss with the salad.
  • Taste for salt and acid. Add more salt and vinegar to taste.

FENNEL, BEET AND ORANGE SALAD WITH CUMIN VINAIGRETTE



Fennel, Beet and Orange Salad With Cumin Vinaigrette image

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.

ROASTED BEET, GOAT CHEESE AND FENNEL SALAD



Roasted Beet, Goat Cheese and Fennel Salad image

Serve this lemony goat cheese salad as a side dish or as a meal with crunchy walnuts and tender butterhead lettuce. Each tangy-fresh salad offers fewer than 200 calories. Wrapping aluminum foil around each beet for roasting creates a small steam chamber to cook each vegetable. In addition to locking in nutrients and flavor, the aluminum foil-wrapped beets cook without getting dry.

BEET, ORANGE AND ARUGULA SALAD



Beet, Orange and Arugula Salad image

The oranges in this sweet and pungent salad will look like blood oranges after they sit for a little while with the beets. This makes a pretty Christmas salad. Try to find the wispy wild arugula, which is more pungent than regular arugula.
