A vibrant and festive winter salad featuring sweet pears, tart pomegranate arils, and dried cranberries, topped with delicate feta snowflakes and a zesty honey-lime dressing.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup pomegranate arils
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 4 cups mixed greens (such as arugula and spinach)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, shaped into snowflake-like clusters
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
  • For the dressing: 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 1 tablespoon honey, salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper to make the dressing. Set aside.
  2. In a large salad bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced pears, pomegranate arils, dried cranberries, and toasted walnuts.
  3. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
  4. Sprinkle the feta cheese snowflakes on top just before serving to maintain their shape and texture.
