KOHLRABI FENNEL AND CITRUS SLAW-1

Kohlrabi is a cruciferous vegetable with a delectable, light flavor. I prefer to eat it raw in salads or slaws, or sliced into rounds and used as a "chip" for dips! Kohlrabi has a fibrous peel that is best removed before using; I usually use a sharp paring knife to remove it. Serve this light and flavorful kohlrabi and fennel salad for a springtime brunch with poached eggs and grain-free biscuits for a nourishing meal. 

Ingredients
3 medium kohlrabi peeled and thinly sliced
1 large fennel bulbs thinly sliced
1 medium pink grapefruit peeled and segmented
1 large oranges peeled and segmented
¼ cups snipped fresh chives
2 tablespoons minced parsley

Dressing

2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
½ teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
½ teaspoons finely grated lime zest
¼ teaspoons sea salt
