Ingredients
For the salad:
- 200 g baby spinach
- 50 g Gorgonzola
- seeds from 1/2 large pomegranate
- 25 g flaked almonds
- 50 g dried plums
For the pomegranate dressing:
- juice from 1/2 large pomegranate
- 1 teaspoon honey
- juice from 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- pepper to taste
Instructions
- This one should be very easy.
- First of all, soak the dried plums in 1 cup of hot water for 5 minutes.
- Wash and dry the spinach, preferably with a salad spinner and place it in a large bowl. Cut the pomegranate in half. We’ll use the seeds from one half for the salad, and the other half we’ll squeeze for the dressing. Put the pomegranate seeds in the bowl with the spinach.
- Crumble the Gorgonzola cheese and add it to the spinach and Gorgonzola. Remove the plums from the water, dry and slice them. Add them to the bowl.
- For the dressing, mix all the dressing ingredients in a separate small bowl. Drizzle over the spinach, pomegranate and Gorgonzola salad. Top with the flaked almonds and serve.
