Mushrooms inspired this delicious fall salad in my kitchen. The salad is substantial enough to feed six if you increase the number of lettuce leaves.

Method
Cut any delicate fronds off fennel; chop fronds and set aside. Cut stems off fennel and discard. Cut fennel in half from root to stem end; cut each half crosswise into paper-thin slices. Place in large bowl along with chopped fronds, mushrooms, cheese and parsley. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.)
Dressing: In liquid measure, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 days.)
Pour dressing over mushroom mixture; toss gently to coat. Divide lettuce leaves among plates; top with salad. Break walnuts into coarse pieces; sprinkle over top.
