Shredded salads are my new obsession and making it with radicchio just gives it a new level of beauty. I love myself a good salad. One that I can make in a big batch and eat throughout the week. This checks all the boxes. It’s filled with lots of fresh herbs and seasoned in the most simple way. You’ll be amazed how tasty this is!
Serves: 6
Time: 60 minutes
Ingredients
1 Raddichio
1 Large Carrot
1 Green Apple
0.5 cup Bulgur
1 cup Hot Water
0.5 cup Fresh Parsley
0.5 cup Green Onion
0.5 cup Fresh Mint
0.5 cup Sliced Almonds
2 Lemons
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Black Pepper
0.55 cup Olive Oil
Instructions
Slice the raddichio into quraters, remove the thing stem and any ugly or wilted leaves. Cut as thin as possible or use a mandolin for best results. Shred the carrot and green apples and add all to a large mixing bowl.






Add the bulgur and hot water to a separate bowl and allow it 5 minutes to absorb the hot water and soften up. Then strain and add to the main bowl.





Finely chop the parsley and green onion. Add both to the main bowl along with the sliced almonds.





Season with salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix well, cover, and set in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Then plate and enjoy.




I just made this. Delicious
I made this to accompany grilled chicken. I’m not typically a radicchio fan but this was delicious! The mint, carrot and apple balanced out the bitterness of the radicchio. You could easily sub in quinoa or even brown rice if you didn’t have bulgur wheat on hand. Bonus points that it was also super healthy.
