Simple and tasty salad with fennel and pomegranate seeds. I added a touch of lemon juice to the olive oil and instead of pistachio's I used sliced almonds. I think adding a little pom juice to the oil might make a tastier dressing for this salad. Made for vegetarian tag. -
Yum! I had a tom of spinach to use up so used that instead of lettuce and I think that went well. I loved the pomegranate ( what's NOT to love about pomegranates? LOL) and the very different flavours worked unexpectedly well. Please see my rating system: 4 stars for a quick and easy salad that is a nice change from tomoates, cuccumber etc. Thanks! -
This was a really good salad! With the fennel and pomegranate seeds, DH didn't miss the vinegar. I added just a touch to mine, but it was really good without it too. Thanks for this fresh tasting salad!
