Apple and Cucumber Salad with Fennel and Pomegranate
I like the simple elegance of this dish. It’s great for a dinner party, but simple enough for an everyday salad too. The sweet-tart apples pair well with the sweet fennel and juicy bursts from the pomegranate seeds. The cucumbers help to balance out the flavors.

Roasted Fennel, Carrots, and Olives with Rosemary
Roasted root vegetables are a favorite fall/winter dish of mine. Last week at the market I saw someone with fennel and it just sounded so hearty and warming. The sweet anise flavor of the fennel paired with the woodsy aroma of rosemary would be the perfect cold weather dish. Serve it with roast pork or chicken for a big meal, or as a vegetable main dish.

Roasted Fennel, Orange, and Olive Salad
Here’s a great winter salad. The orange offers a fresh burst of flavor and pairs well with the sweet anise flavor of the roasted fennel and the tang of the black olives. It is a simple dish to make. It is also great for entertaining or for leftovers, as it is excellent cold, at room temperature, or hot. Roasting fennel mellows out the anise flavor and adds a nice sweetness to this wintery vegetable.
