Ingredients

  • 10 ounces greens (I used half arugula half little gems)
  • 1 apple thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado thinly sliced
  • 1 medium fennel bulb very thinly sliced
  • 1 medium pomegranate (about 1.5 to 2 cups arils) separated
  • 1 cup walnut halves roughly chopped and toasted
  • 2/3 cup shaved Parmesan cheese separated
  • 1 batch shallot vinaigrette

Instructions

  • Toss the salad. Combine the greens, apple, avocado, fennel, half of the pomegranate arils, walnuts, and half of the Parmesan in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle evenly with the shallot vinaigrette and toss gently until evenly combined.
  • Serve. Serve immediately, garnished with the remaining pomegranate arils and Parmesan and a few twists of freshly-ground black pepper. Enjoy!
