The Salad:

• 1 bag organic mixed baby greens
• Pomegranate Vinaigrette (recipe below)
• 6-8 Dried apricots cut into thin strips
• Caramelized pecans or walnuts
• Sliced red apples
• Soft goat cheese

Pomegranate Vinaigrette:

Note: you can use store bought pomegrate reduced pomegranate juice (see links in blog post) or reduce your own. To reduce your own simply simmer 1 cup juice in small sauce till it is reduced to a ¼ cup. I measure after 15 minutes and every few minutes after that. Just be sure not to forget about it! After it is reduced to a ¼ cup, allow to cool before using.

• ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
• ¼ cup Pomegranate juice reduction (see note above)
• 2 teaspoons finely minced shallots
• 2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
• Juice of half a lemon
• 2 teaspoons honey
• Pinch of sea salt
