Instructions

Pomegranate Vinaigrette

In a large measuring cup, combine Pomegranate juice, honey, vinegar, and mustard. Whisk together until well-combined. Continue to whisk as you add in olive oil to emulsify. Pour dressing into serving container and set aside.

Apple Pear Salad

In a medium bowl, pour about 1/2 cup of Pomegranate Vinaigrette. Core and thinly slice apples and pears, adding to the bowl and tossing in the vinaigrette.
In another large serving bowl, combine salad greens, roasted pecans, bleu cheese crumbles and pomegranate seeds. Using a slotted spoon, remove fruit from dressing and add into the salad bowl.
Serve with Pomegranate Vinaigrette Dressing.

Notes

Recipe Tips:
Apples - Use apples such as Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Sweetango for their crispness and juicy flavor.
Pears - Use ripe, juicy, slightly firm pears such as Bartlett, Anjou, or Comice.
Pecans - If you wish, you can substitute walnuts for roasted pecans.
