Gorgeous, healthy salad. Use baby kale or half spinach half baby kale. This was also delicious with parmesan cheese and chicken in place of the feta and walnuts.
Ingredients
  • For the Salad:
  • 1 cup pomegranate seeds
  • 2 cups chopped baby kale or spinach and baby kale mix
  • 2 cups cooked wild rice
  • ¼ cup toasted walnuts
  • ¼ cup feta cheese
  • For the dressing:
  • ½ cup minced purple onion or shallot
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 TB orange juice
Instructions
  1. Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl.
  2. Prepare the dressing by blending all the ingredients together in a blender. Lindsay has you saute the onion for a few minutes to scale down the bite, but I like the onion tangy so I just added it to the dressing as is.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad and enjoy.
