Number Of Ingredients 11

Vinaigrette:
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salad:
1/2 medium red onion
1 medium ripe pear
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice
8 cups baby spinach leaves (about 8 ounces)
2/3 cup pomegranate arils

Steps:

  • (makes 10 servings and about 1/2 cup vinaigrette, 1-1/2 teaspoon per serving) Prep Time: 15 minutes Combine vinegar, honey, and mustard in a nonreactive bowl or jar and set aside for about 5 minutes. Whisk in oil or add to jar, close lid tightly (if using a jar), and shake until well combined. Season with a pinch of kosher salt and a dash of pepper and set aside. Can be made up to 5 days ahead and refrigerated until ready to use. Shake or re-whisk before serving until evenly incorporated. Slice onion into paper-thin slices and place into a small bowl. Halve pear, remove core and stem, and cut into paper-thin slices. Combine in bowl with vinegar and toss to coat. Set aside for at least 5 minutes before using. To serve, divide spinach among serving plates then top with a scattering of pears and onions. Top each serving with about 1 tablespoon of pomegranate arils, drizzle with dressing, and serve.

I thought this salad was pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and the dressing was light and flavorful. I would make this salad again, but I would probably use a different type of dressing.

This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The flavors are a bit too sweet for my taste and the dressing is too thick. I wouldn't make this salad again.

I found this salad to be bland and uninspired. The pears and pomegranate were not ripe enough and the dressing was too oily. I wouldn't make this salad again.

This salad was a disappointment. The flavors didn't really work together and the dressing was too sweet. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I made this salad for my family and they all loved it. Even my picky kids ate it without complaint. I think the key is to use ripe pears and pomegranate. I also recommend using a good quality balsamic vinegar.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also like that it's a good source of vitamins and minerals. I will definitely be making this salad again.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this salad. I'm not usually a fan of spinach salads, but the pears and pomegranate add a sweetness that balances out the bitterness of the spinach. I also love the dressing, which is light and flavorfu

I've made this salad several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's light and refreshing, but still filling enough to be a main course. I usually add some grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a complete meal.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of spinach, pears, and pomegranate is unique and refreshing. I also love the addition of goat cheese and walnuts, which add a nice crunch and tanginess. I will definitely be making this sa
