Persimmon and Goat Cheese Salad with a Vanilla Mint Yoghurt Dressing
Report
This winter salad is a great side dish to ring in the New Year or to celebrate Día de Los Reyes (Three Kings Day). This colorful salad is made with sliced persimmons on a bed of arugula salad. Drizzled with a vanilla mint yoghurt and sprinkled with pomegranate seeds and candied walnuts. The vanilla mint yoghurt adds bright flavor to balance the rich goat cheese and candied walnuts.

Ingredients
Persimmon and Goat Cheese Salad:
- 5 ounces arugula baby
- 1/2 cup goat cheese crumbled
- 2 Fuyu persimmon peeled, and sliced, firm
- 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
- 2 tablespoons walnuts candied
Vanilla Mint Yoghurt Dressing:
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt Mountain High brand
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 2 tablespoons mint fresh, thinly sliced leaves
Instructions
- Combine arugula and persimmon slices on a large platter.
- In a bowl combine the yogurt, honey, and mint. (The dressing may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.)
- Just before serving, drizzle with Vanilla Mint Yoghurt Dressing, and top with goat cheese, pomegranate seeds, and candied walnuts.
Notes
- For this salad, I recommend Fuyu persimmons, which are amazingly sweet when fully ripe.
- If you cannot find arugula, use spinach instead.
