How to make the best frisee salad you've ever had. It has the perfect combination of crunch and sweetness. Cranberry Frisee Salad with pistachios is healthy and packed with flavour!
Frisee Salad
Why buy pre-washed Frisee Salad when you can make your own with a mix of shredded broccoli, cabbage, Brussel sprouts, baby kale, chicory, and frisee. Frisee has a slightly bitter taste and crisp, curly leaves. It pairs perfectly with a tangy vinaigrette for an easy side dish.
To top, I also used a combination of freeze-dried cranberries and dried cranberries, toasted pumpkin seeds and pomegranate seeds. It adds an extra layer of tart and sweetness to brighten the salad! We like using these ones from Patience Fruit & Co.
