Apple Fennel Slaw

Balancing Bowls
Balancing Bowls

If you're looking for a crisp, refreshing salad that balances sweet and savory, this apple fennel slaw is it. I used to shy away from fennel, thinking it would be overpowering. But once I started experimenting, I realized how beautifully it complements other ingredients. Its gentle crunch and subtle licorice flavor pair perfectly with sweet apple, hearty chickpeas, and a tangy honey-Dijon dressing.
