A delicious salad loaded with antioxidants

To be honest, I’ve never been a big fan of radicchio. It’s just too bitter for my taste. So when I stumbled across this salad recipe, I wasn’t exactly rushing to try it. What changed my mind? The combination of creamy avocado and a flavorful vinaigrette. Together, they mellow out the bitterness of the radicchio and create a surprisingly satisfying dish.

This salad isn’t just delicious—it’s a powerhouse of nutrients. Radicchio is rich in antioxidants and vitamin K. Avocado, the beloved toast-topper, is packed with healthy fats that support weight management—especially beneficial for women. And let’s not forget anchovies, which bring a punch of umami flavor and a healthy dose of Omega-3s.
