Fennel and Rocket Salad
Spring is the perfect season to enjoy fresh, vibrant flavours and this Fennel and Rocket Salad is a wonderful way to celebrate lighter meals. With its crisp fennel, peppery rocket and zesty lemon dressing, this salad is quick to prepare yet full of flavour. It’s a versatile addition to your table. Perfect as a healthy side salad with seafood or chicken, or as a refreshing light lunch when you want something simple and nutritious.
I love how the crunchy fennel contrasts with the soft rocket and how the bright, tangy dressing ties everything together beautifully. Whether you’re hosting a lunch with friends, planning a quick family meal, or simply craving a healthy salad recipe, this dish is a must-try. It’s elegant, easy and packed with nutrients - everything a spring salad should be!
