Ingredients
Scale
Salad Greens
- 5 ounces spring mix salad greens
- 6 ounces chopped butter lettuce
Fresh Produce
- 1/2 medium red onion, sliced thin
- 1 watermelon radish, thinly sliced
- 1 to 2 small avocados, sliced
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1/3 cup pomegranate arils
Other Ingredients
- Candied pistachios (quantity as desired, approximately 1/4 cup)
- 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
- Creamy pomegranate dressing (about 1/4 cup or to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare Greens and Arrange: Toss the spring mix salad greens and chopped butter lettuce together in a large bowl. Then, arrange the mixed greens on a serving platter or divide them evenly among individual bowls.
- Add Toppings: Top the greens evenly with candied pistachios, thinly sliced red onion, watermelon radish slices, sliced avocado, blueberries, pomegranate arils, and crumbled feta cheese. Distribute all ingredients evenly for balanced flavor and presentation.
- Dress the Salad: Just before serving, drizzle the salad with the creamy pomegranate dressing according to your taste preferences. Optionally, finish with a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper to enhance flavor.
Notes
- For candied pistachios, you can lightly toast pistachios with sugar and a pinch of salt for a crunchy, sweet topping.
- Use ripe but firm avocados to avoid mushiness in the salad.
- The creamy pomegranate dressing adds a sweet and tangy flavor that complements the fresh fruits and greens perfectly.
- This salad is best served immediately after dressing to maintain freshness and crispness.
