Fennel Salad with Toasted Pine Nuts and Goat Cheese

I saw Valerie Bertinelli demo this Sat. on the Food Channel, and just made it myself today. Holy Moly!!!! It was so YUMOLA :)
(2 servings as a main dish, 4 as a side)

3 T. EVOO
1 T. red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cups loosely packed baby arugula (I used shredded iceberg* - cuz it was what I had)
1 fennel bulb, fronds removed and chopped (reserve for garnish*), bulb cored and thinly sliced
     using a mandoline
2 oz. goat cheese, crumbled
2 T. pine nuts, toasted in a dry pan*

Whisk together the oil, vinegar, and S&P in a small bowl. Combine the arugula and sliced fennel in a med. salad bowl. Pour the vinaigrette over and toss to thoroughly coat. Season with S&P. Scatter the chopped fennel fronds, goat cheese crumbles, and pine nuts on top and serve with a big smile!!

Have FUN, and make someone's day!!!!

Love,
