Any lettuce will do, but we liked Boston lettuce for its delicate texture.

2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups chopped Braeburn or Gala apple (about 1 pound)
2 cups thinly sliced fennel bulb (about 2 small bulbs)
16 cups torn Boston lettuce (about 8 small heads)

How to Make It

I could not believe that my husband rated this salad 4 stars--typically he rates salads as 3s. We both really liked the salad, which we made as a main course, adding rotisserie chicken. Otherwise, I followed the recipe pretty closely, except I probably only had 1.5 cups each of apple & fennel. I also probably only used about 1/4 cup of shallot. I blended the dressing using a stick blender, which worked really well!

Addictive salad & one fought over for the last bite! Especially good with pork entrees.
