The 2024 cookbook I Love You: Recipes from the Heart (A Cookbook) is Pamela Anderson's contribution to vegan cooking. In the book, the legendary starlet shares recipes for elegant salads and sourdough bread and even includes pet treats and skincare tips.
Among the cookbook's highlights is Anderson's Shaved Fennel and Apple Salad, which she describes as "elegant, surprising, delicious." The combination of crisp Granny Smith apples, licorice-like fennel, fresh herbs and crispy fried capers, makes for a salad that feels like sunshine in a bowl. I set out to test this salad to see if Anderson shines in the kitchen as much as she does on the screen.

Next, thinly slice the apples and fennel (Anderson says to use a mandoline) and place them in a large bowl. Toss in chopped fresh dill, parsley, lemon zest, flaky salt and pepper. In a separate small bowl, whisk the apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and olive oil until well combined. Pour the dressing over the apple-fennel mixture and gently toss to combine. Transfer the salad to a serving platter and sprinkle with the crispy capers. Voilà, you've got California cool in a bowl.
