Ingredients

Salad:

1 cup pomegranate seeds
1 honey crisp apple sliced thin
1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
salad greens our favorites are chopped kale, arugula, or mixed greens
2 tbsp feta cheese or gorgonzola works too!

Dressing:

1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp honey or equal parts maple syrup

1/4 tsp (each) black pepper & salt

Instructions

Assemble the salad: in a large salad bowl, add the greens, pomegranate seeds, apple slices, nuts, and feta.
Mix the salad dressing: in a glass jar, add all of the salad dressing ingredients. Cover it with a lid and shake it until combined, or use a spoon/fork to whisk the ingredients together.
Serve: drizzle the dressing over top of the salad and serve!

Notes

Tips

Apples: You can use almost any apple for this salad - I recommend pink lady, honey crisp, or fuji apples.
Greens: Use your favorite greens for this salad such as kale, arugula, spinach, or mixed greens.
Make dairy-free: If needed you can eliminate the cheese all together or swap for goat cheese.
Make this salad ahead: If this salad needs to be prepped ahead of time I recommend storing all the prepped ingredients in separate ziplock bags, then assemble the salad as needed close to the time of serving.
