Pomegranate, walnuts, and apples are packed with nutrients, making this salad an ideal choice for transitional seasons. Pomegranate is rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. Walnuts are full of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E, while apples offer vitamin C and fiber. Together, these ingredients create a refreshing balance of nutrients and a delicious flavor.
Ingredients:
- 100 g feta cheese, cubed
- 1 large red apple, thinly sliced
- 1 pomegranate, seeds removed
- 50 g walnuts, lightly toasted and coarsely chopped
- 100 g mixed greens
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation:
In a large bowl, combine the greens, apple slices, pomegranate seeds, and feta. Add the walnuts and toss gently. Whisk together the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper, if desired. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss lightly to coat.
Serve immediately to retain the crispness of the apples and walnuts. This salad pairs perfectly with roasted meat or fish and can also be served as a light meal. Enjoy!
