This is a two-for-one recipe — two tasty and simple recipes using nutrient-packed ingredients to make one delicious salad. First, make the Orange Miso Dressing for a savory and slightly sweet dressing that you’ll want for days to come (hint: double the batch!). Second, assemble fennel, orange, kale, and avocado, before drizzling with the dressing. Finally, top with sweet cranberries and crunchy almonds for a refreshing and satisfying dish!

Chef's Notes
Substitutions Use lemon juice in place of orange juice.
Use ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder and ginger powder in place of fresh garlic and ginger.
Instead of kale use your favorite leafy greens.
In place of cranberries, try dried apricots or raisins.
Nut-free Use pumpkin seeds or sesame seeds in place of almonds (other great sources of healthy plant-based fats!).
