A Simple Awesome Salad With Lots Of Potentials

This very simple and awesome salad is made of a few fresh ingredients and turns out completely awesome!
Firstly I’d like to say a little about the LCHF lifestyle and the challenges regarding salads.
As you might have read before on my blog, I often talk about the importance of eating enough fat. Why is that necessary to write about along with a recipe for salad? Well, the answer is, that very many salad-lovers are female and have learned for their whole life not to eat fat, which is why many (new to LCHF) tend to stay in their comfort zone by eating salads. That’s very good, as long as you also eat fat along with the salads!
This salad should be accompanied by some more fat, cheese og salami for instance, or it might serve as side dish to meat or fish. You can also have chorizo, iberico ham and/or fried aubergine!
Another variation is hardboiled eggs and mayonnaise. Please never think of any neither this awesome salad as good enough without added fat. You’ll get hungry within an hour.

Fennel Radish Pear Salad

fennel pear salad This fantastic salad is made of fennel, radish and pear sliced with a mandolin, see picture in the recipe below.

If you don’t have a mandolin like that, you could slice the fennel and radish very thinly with a sharp knife. The pear is easier to get slice without a mandolin. I recommend a mandolin though, so you’re better off buying one. They are not expensive, and it’ll save you a lot of time. I often use such one for salads.

The characteristic of this salad is the very thin slices that will soften in the dressing, which makes the salad smooth and soft. You can make the salad a day before serving and save leftovers as well. The choice of vinegar or balsamico will change the colour of the salad, which is why my salad turned out darker. I use an aged balsamico.

Slices Of Beef On A Layer Of Salad

This is how to make a nice dinner with slices of lovely tender beef on a layer of salad or any other raw vegetables.

In my family we are trying to reduce our intake of meat both due to sustainable reasons but also due to a greater wellbeing. I feel, that when I succeed balancing vegetables and meat, I feel better than if do not. So an intake of 100 grammes of meat in a dinner is more than enough, which means you can buy one beef for your family and share it depending of the size of your family. I love meat, but I think we need much less than what is suggested in many recipes.
