Summer chicory - fennel salad
The freshness kick for your metabolism
This is what summer tastes like!
This combination of chicory, fennel and apple is not just a salad. But the absolute superfood salad for your metabolism.
Chicory has a strong anti-inflammatory effect on your body and fennel stimulates digestion. A healthy digestion also includes a healthy intestine and the apples and nuts take care of that. Apples in particular are one of the best sources of fiber, and with their high levels of inulin, they feed your healthy gut bacteria
