Spring has sprung! Enjoy this refreshing salad as a side or on its own for a healthy entrée! This recipe is shared from our Culinary Director, Michael Atwater, at Ansel Park Independent Living.

Ingredients:

  • 4 heads of watercress
  • 1 fuji apple

Instructions:

  1. Pull leaves from watercress, wash and dry well.
  2. Thinly slice apple, black radish and fennel and place in a bowl together.
  3. Add your vinaigrette to the bowl with the apple, radish and fennel.
  4. Place watercress in center of plate, add the mixture from the bowl.
