Apple Pomegranate Salad

******dir hna lcode adsense******

 This salad though, really is a healthy salad. Wait, you mean it’s loaded with flavor and still good for you?? Yep. That’s my kind of salad.

De-seeding that pretty winter fruit can be a bit of a pain but soooo worth it! There’s nothing quite like those juicy little guys. Mmmmmmmm, so good!

The salad dressing really tops off this whole salad with a lot of flavorful garlicky balsamic-y goodness. And a bit of sweetness from the honey. You’ll love it. Fix this salad as a side or top it with some strips of cooked chicken breast for a healthy and delicious main dish!

INGREDIENTS

• 6-8 cups chopped romaine, baby spinach leaves, or mixed greens
• ½ cup pomegranate seeds
• 2 medium apples, cored and sliced
• ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

For the Dressing:

• ½ cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• ⅓ cup sugar
• 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Optional: fresh cracked pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the dressing by whisking all ingredients together until smooth. Chill until ready to serve.
2. In a large bowl combine lettuce, pomegranate seeds, apple slices, and feta cheese. Toss to mix well. Plate about 2 cups of salad onto each of four plates. Top with dressing and freshly cracked black pepper if desired.
