Do you need a bright and simple salad to chase away the winter blues or dress up your holiday meal? This Orange and Fennel Salad is a winning combination.

It is best if you make the vinaigrette ahead of time and give the flavors time to blend. Just whisk together again before serving.

You will only need a small amount of the zest of lemon, lime and orange. I recommend zesting the entire fruit and freezing the excess in a plastic bag for future use.
