CLEANSING PICKLED FENNEL, ORANGE AND KALE SALAD

February 26, 2018

I designed this salad as a simple liver cleanse to counter balance any slips on the dry January trail ☺

This is how it all works..
– Fennel protects the liver from harmful chemicals.
– Kale provides comprehensive support for the entire detoxification system.
– The enzymes in citrus help to clear the digestive tract and cleanse the liver.
– Not only are walnuts a brain-helping food, but they hold high levels of acid arginine, which aids the liver in detoxifying ammonia & glutathione.

Combined, we have a delicious liver cleansing salad.

INGREDIENTS

  • Salad
  • 1 packet of baby kale
  • 1 small fennel bulb, finely sliced
  • 1/4 red onion, finely sliced (optional)
  • 1 orange, segmented
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta (optional)
  • 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp Nuvia Sweetener

  • Dressing
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt & pepper to taste

METHOD

  • 1. Prepare your dressing first; the fastest way to make this dressing is to place all ingredients into an airtight jar and shake, shake till you have a beautifully emulsified dressing! Check the seasoning & add salt or pepper to taste and set aside.
  • 2. Next we're going to do a really quick intense pickle of the fennel: in a medium sized bowl place the vinegar, salt and Nuvia Sweetener. Whisk until the Nuvia Sweetener and salt have dissolved.
  • 3. Next add your fennel and let it rest in the solution for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes drain the liquid away. (You can keep the liquid in an airtight jar in the fridge for your next pickle)
  • 4. In a large serving bowl or platter place your kale as the base. Then lightly mix through 2/3 of the fennel & red onion.
  • 5. Next decorate your leafy green kale with the orange, walnuts, remaining fennel and feta if you're adding it.
  • 6. Drizzle your delicious dressing over the top and enjoy.
 

TIPS AND TWEAKS

Add any type of protein to this salad; salmon or chicken would be my choice.

Omit the feta to make it a vegan salad.
