Ingredients

  • 2 medium fennel bulbs or 1 large fennel bulb
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, halved, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup pecans, toasted and roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. Slice the fennel bulbs into quarters, top to bottom, and remove the core and outer leaves. Cut the quarters with the grain into paper-thin slices.

  2. Place sliced fennel, apples, and pecans in a large bowl.
