Notes
- To save on prep time, you can buy pre-cooked bacon. Also, if you don’t want to take the time to pick all of the arils out of a whole pomegranate, you can buy containers of pomegranate seeds that are ready to go in your produce section.
- If you can’t find pomegranate seeds, substitute dried cranberries instead.
- I typically use Pink Lady apples in this salad. Other great options include Braeburn, Honeycrisp, Gala or Fuji apples.
