Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pistachios
  • 1 slice whole wheat bread
  • 3-4 small endives
  • 1 small handful of basil or mint
  • 1 medium orange

For the blood orange vinaigrette

  • 1/2 small blood orange for juicing
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Set your oven to 350F. In a food processor, pulse together the pistachios and bread until you get fine crumbs. Spread these on a baking sheet and toast until crispy, about 5-6 minutes.
  • While the breadcrumbs are toasting, pull apart your endive leaves. Cut the orange slices to your liking.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the dressing. Cut the remaining 1/2 of the blood orange into small slices.
  • Add the endive leaves to the bowl and toss to fully coat them.
  • When the breadcrumbs are finished, spread them evenly on your serving dish.
  • Top the breadcrumbs with the endives, then add the orange slices and herbs. Top with more breadcrumbs and serve!
