A sunny refreshing salad. Fennel adds an interesting crunch while the salt, pepper and basil bring out the sweetness of the fruit.

1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced

4 large basil leaves, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY

Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Using a sharp knife, remove peel and white pith from oranges. Cut each orange into 1/2-inch slices, crosswise. Place on a plate.
Trim fennel and discard outer layer. Cut bulb in half and thinly slice. Scatter slices over oranges. Sprinkle with onion slices and top with sliced basil.
In a small bowl, whisk together oil and honey. Spoon over salad. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
