How to Prepare Fennel and Brown Rice Salad [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Take your fennel bulb and chop off the end, and just before the stalks begin. Keep your fennel leaves for garnish, or herbal tea.
- Chop the bulb in half vertically, and rinse the thoroughly in a bowl of water and apple cider vinegar. If you're lucky enough to have organic, just a rinse under the tap will do.
- Thinly dice up the bulb, and place into a large mixing bowl. Add the baby spinach, apple cider vinegar and juice of 1 lime. Mix through and allow to marinate for at least 30mins.
- While that is marinating you can chop up your bell pepper, and baby tomatoes.
- Once the salad has marinated, add the bell pepper and tomatoes, and serve on a plate adding your hummus, and a separate bowl of brown rice. Drizzle some tahini over the rice for an added calcium boost!
- Add salt and pepper if needed.
