Super Quick Summer Pomegranite Salad

Hello Lovelies,

I love a good salad with a BBQ, especially one that is super quick and easy.

I spent the weekend with my father, which always involves a big dose of countryside, lots of dog walks and if it's good weather a killer BBQ.  To go alongside the meat feast I thought I would knock up a nice little salad.

Ingredients

Watercress

A pomegranate 

Cubed Feta cheese   

The first thing you want to do is get the seeds out.  Pomegranates are pesky little things, but with this nifty trick the little blighters just fall out!

All you need to do is cut it in half like you normally would, push out the center a bit, then just give it a good smack with a wooden spoon over a bowl.  If done correctly all the seeds should just fall right out.

After washing your watercress pop it into your salad bowl, next grab your feta, either through the cubes on top or chop it into little cubes. 

Once you have thrown on your feta and gotten all arty with the pretty pomegranate, it's time to knock up a dressing, my favourite for this salad is honey and mustard.

Ingredients

1/4 cup white wine vinegar

1 tsp   dijon mustard

2 Tbsp  honey

1/2 tsp crushed garlic

1 Tbsp  lemon juice

2 Tbsp  extra virgin olive oil 


Give it all a good mix in a jam jar, drizzle over your salad and, ENJOY!
