Note: you can make this salad as large or small as you like. You can also mix different lettuces. You could add in some onion. All is good and completely up to your imagination.

I always wash my produce when I get home from the grocery store so it’s ready for me.

You will need a large salad bowl.

I cut the Romaine lettuce, radicchio, and green leaf lettuce into bite sized pieces. My heads of endive were small, so I just cut them into small circles about ¼ inch thick. If you had larger heads, I would cut them in half first and then into half-moons. This is all up to you. Add all your lettuces, radicchio, and endive to your bowl.

Cut the fennel in half and save some of the frons. Peel the outer tougher leaves from the bulb. Remove the core by cutting a “V”. Slice each half into thin slices and add to your bowl. Give this all a mix with salad tongs. Now, top with your mandarin oranges. Serve with your favorite salad dressing. I tossed with my homemade Sweet Italian Dressing.

Put all ingredients in proper salad dressing jar or a mason jar will work just as well. Shake it all till combined.
