Spinach-Arugula-Pomegranate Salad





















Ingredients:
- Organic Spinach
- Organic Baby Arugula Blend
  (includes Organic Arugula, Organic Frisée, and Organic Radicchio)
- 1/2 avocado
- 1 lime
- 1/2 green pepper
- 1 pomegranate
- olive oil to dress
- pepper to taste

In this dish, you can use any of your favorite veggies as the "extra" salad ingredients; avocado and green peppers always seem to make it in my house. Prep your veggies by dicing them into bite-sized pieces and set aside. When slicing your lime, generously cut the ends off. You will use these ends to squeeze lime juice and lime meat overtop your salad. Dice the remaining middle of the lime and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix your greens together. Add the extra diced veggies, then drizzle olive oil and lime juice over mixture. To get the lime meat, simply scrape the inside with a fork and add as desired. Slice your pomegranate in half so the seeds are easy to extract. Sprinkle as many as you like overtop your mixed salad (the more, the merrier!) and finish off with a sprinkle of pepper.

Your extra lime slices can be slightly squeezed into and added to your water for some freshness. Eat the remaining pomegranate as a side! We ate this meal quickly and were completely fulfilled afterwards, so it's a must-try. Notice the new countertop in the new place??

Bon appétit.
