Description

This fruity salad is a beautiful combination of juicy orange segments, creamy avocado, sweet-tart pomegranate seeds, and salty feta cheese, all tossed with a fragrant rosemary honey vinaigrette. Colorful, refreshing, and full of contrasting flavors, it makes a lovely addition to any meal!

Ingredients
 

For the Salad:

  • 1 medium pomegranate de-seeded
  • 1 avocado pitted and sliced
  • 1 orange peeled and cut into segments
  • 100 g / 3.5 oz feta cheese diced
  • 2 cups mixed salad greens shredded

For the Rosemary Honey Vinaigrette:

  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 small sprig fresh rosemary leaves only
  • 1 garlic clove crushed (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 dash freshly grated black pepper

Instructions
 

Prepare the Rosemary Honey Vinaigrette

  • In a deep glass bowl or a jar, combine the olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, honey, water, Dijon mustard, rosemary leaves, and crushed garlic (if using). Using an immersion blender or a standard blender, blend on high speed for about one minute until thoroughly emulsified and smooth. Season to taste with a pinch of salt and a dash of freshly grated black pepper. Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Prep the Orange Segments

  • Using a sharp knife, slice off the top and bottom of the orange, then cut away the peel and white pith following the curve of the fruit. Carefully slice between the membranes to release clean, skinless orange segments. Set them aside.

Assemble and Serve

  • Arrange the shredded mixed salad greens on a large serving platter or bowl. Scatter the diced feta cheese, fresh pomegranate seeds, sliced avocado, and prepped orange segments beautifully over the greens. Drizzle with the rosemary honey vinaigrette just before serving. Toss gently to combine and enjoy immediately!
