CITRUS, FENNEL, AND PEPPER SALAD TOPPED WITH GOAT CHEESE
Perhaps it was the presence of an orange in the toe of my Christmas stocking each year that makes me crave the freshness of citrus in the winter. It is easy to find jars of roasted peppers, and the two combine to make a cheerful colorful combination as welcome in the winter months as in the summer. Another name for shaved fennel is fennel slaw.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice off the beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Discard the beet greens. Scrub the beets thoroughly, and then loosely wrap each one in foil.
- Transfer the wrapped beets to baking sheet lined with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets every 20 minutes or so. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before rewrapping. Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the middle of the beet.
- Cool the beets until they can comfortably be handled. Hold one of the beets in a paper towel and use the edges to rub the skin away. The skin should peel away easily; if it doesn't, the beets likely need to cook for a little longer. Slice the peeled beets into wedges.
- Combine the beet wedges, mache, goat cheese, avocado, and shaved fennel on a large serving platter and drizzle with basil vinaigrette. Sprinkle the pepitas on top and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose firm, ripe apples. Granny Smith and Honeycrisp are good choices.
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the apples. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the apples. Work in batches if necessary.
- Be careful not to overcook the apples. They should be tender but still have a little bit of bite.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of greens for the salad. Arugula, spinach, and mixed greens are all good choices.
- Crumble the goat cheese just before serving. This will help to keep it from clumping together.
- Drizzle the salad with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. This will help to bring all of the flavors together.
Conclusion:
This Goat Cheese Apple Fennel Salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up any leftover apples you may have. The combination of sweet apples, tangy goat cheese, and crunchy fennel is sure to please everyone at your table.
