  1. john and I enjoyed this bright crunchy salad. I used frozen seeds. As soon as pomegranates come into season I buy extra just to freeze for when I find recipes like this off season.This brightened up my Menu #28849 menu, it is a dark meal and the salad gave brightness. Made for ZWT5. Thanks! ;)
     
  2. I am going to do Bibb or Butter lettuce and try poppy seed dressing. It reminds me of an almond and Mandarin midrange salad my mother makes.
     
  3. Great dinner.

  4. Wow, what a nice contrast between the tart pomegranate seeds and the sweetness of the oranges. Also, a very beautiful salad.
     
  5. Easy to prepare, and very light and refreshing - perfect for a hot day. Thanks for sharing! ZWT7

Tweaks

  1. Excellent! I too used romaine lettuce (more like 3 cups) and had to use dried pomegranate seeds because fresh is not available this time of year. Gave it some crunch. Instead of light Italian dressing I used a bit of oil, added some dried Italian herbs and used the balsamic vinegar of course. I knew my BF would love this recipe too, and he said so. I forgot to add the celery (darn), and my photo software failed me last night so if I can't get it working again I won't be able to post a photo:( Part of an excellent dinner with a Caribbean soup. Thanks so much!
