A gorgeous radicchio salad recipe made with avocado, apple, crumbled blue cheese, and toasted walnuts.
Radicchio Salad Recipe.
Radicchio might not be yourΒ go-to salad base, but itβs worth adding to your rotation. It has a naturally spicy,Β slightly bitter flavor that pairs well with sweet apple and cool, creamy avocado. The balance is lovely.
Add savory blue cheese for richness and toasted walnuts for warmth. And youβve got a killer salad with so much flavor and texture. It doesnβt hurt that radicchio is the prettiest ruby red, either.
Because all of these ingredients are so flavorful on their own. I keep the salad dressing simple with aΒ balsamic vinaigretteΒ made with balsamic vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Perfect.
