Ingredients & Directions

Pomegranate, Pear & Pistachio Salad
1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
1 sweet apple, chopped
1 pear, chopped
1 small cucumber, peeled and chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
¼ red onion, chopped
⅓ cup roasted and salted pepitas (may sub. sunflower seeds)
⅓ cup roasted and salted pistachios
⅓ cup pomegranate arils
½ cup Feta cheese


Creamy Pomegranate Dressing
1 5.3 oz. Greek Yogurt with Cherry Pomegranate (I use Fage)*
¼ cup Sweet Red Chili Sauce (found in Asian section)
2 tablespoons pomegranate juice
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Whisk together all of the Creamy Pomegranate Dressing ingredients in a medium bowl and chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the salad.  Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl. If serving entire salad immediately, drizzle with desired amount of dressing and toss to coat. If there might be leftovers, drizzle dressing on individual salad servings. Top with freshly ground salt and pepper.
