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.
