RADICCHIO SALAD WITH EASY RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• To a blender, add the Italian dressing, 1/2 of the raspberries, and the sugar substitute, and blend for a minute until smooth.
• Line a bowl or plate with whole radicchio leaves and pile high the lettuce mix in the center.

Pour raspberry vinaigrette over the salad and top with a few fresh raspberries. Serve.

RADICCHIO SLAW

Steps:

• Prepare the dressing by placing the fennel seeds in a small saute pan over low heat. Toast, tossing occasionally, about 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Crush the toasted seeds with the edge or a pan, in a mortar and pestle, or seal in a plastic bag and roll with a rolling pin.
• In a saucepan, place the honey, cider vinegar, salt and pepper, and toasted fennel seeds. Bring to a boil, stirring well. Remove from heat. Whisk in olive oil and season, to taste.
• Place the romaine, radicchio, cabbage, and watercress in a large serving bowl. Add warm dressing and toss well. Serve immediately.

KALE AND RADICCHIO SALAD WITH RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine the oil, vinegar, Raspberry Syrup, salt and pepper in a jar. Seal with a lid and shake until emulsified. Place 2 tablespoons of the dressing in a large bowl. Add the kale and gently massage until it is evenly coated with the dressing.
• Add the radicchio, raspberries, ricotta and pecans and toss with the remaining dressing. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a serving bowl.
• Place the sugar and 2 cups water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the lemon juice and raspberries and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries have broken down, about 10 minutes. Pour the mixture through a strainer and return to the pot. Simmer over medium heat until the syrup has thickened, about 10 minutes more. Let cool completely, then pour into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up 2 weeks.
