Ingredients
- 1 head Radicchio
- 2 cups Arugula
- 0.5 cup Almonds
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese
- 1 medium Avocado
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 1 large Garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by toasting the almonds: In a small pan over medium-low heat, add the almonds and dry-fry them for about 5 minutes or until they are golden brown and fragrant. Stir occasionally to avoid burning. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 2
Prepare the vegetables: Remove the outer leaves of the radicchio and cut the remaining head into quarters. Remove the core and slice the radicchio into thin ribbons. Rinse and dry the arugula if necessary. Peel and cube the avocado.
Step 3
In a large salad bowl, combine the sliced radicchio, arugula, toasted almonds, crumbled feta cheese, and avocado cubes.
Step 4
Prepare the citrus dressing: Mince the garlic. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, orange zest, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Step 6
Serve the salad immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to two hours before serving to let the flavors develop.
