    Ingredients

    Pomegranate Dressing

    • 1  cup pomegranate juice
    • ½ - 1 tsp honey
    • Optional: ¼ tsp chili
    • ½ tsp garlic, minced
    • 1 - 2 TBSP lemon juice
    • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
    • ¼ tsp ground pepper
    • ½ tsp thyme
    • 2 TBSP olive oil

    Salad:

    • 2 cups rockets, romaine or bibb lettuce, hand-torn
    • ½ cup Persian or English cucumber, halved and sliced ¼ "
    • 1 TBSP chives or green onions, chopped
    • 1 hardboiled egg, sliced into 4 lengthwise
    • ¼ cup Feta cheese, crumbled
    • 1 cup diced watermelon
    • 1 TBSP cacao nibs
    • Optional: 2 TBSP slivered almonds
    • Optional: Pomegranate seeds for color

    Instructions

    • Start the pomegranate dressing. Reduce the pomegranate juice to a sauce: in a medium saucepan bring the pomegranate juice, honey, and optional chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, 12 minutes until the liquid is reduced to ¼ cup. Set aside to cool.*
    • At the same time cook the egg in a cup water in a small pot for 12 minutes.
    • Continue making the dressing: in a small bowl combine minced garlic, lemon juice, mustard, ground pepper and thyme. Add the ¼ cup reduced pomegranate-honey sauce. Slowly stream in the oil, whisking constantly. Taste and add salt if necessary.
    • Toss the lettuce in the dressing and place in a serving bowl.
    • Arrange the cucumbers, chives, egg, feta, hardboiled egg, and melons on top. Sprinkle with cacao nibs before serving. Optional: top salad with slivered almonds and pomegranate seeds.

    Notes & Ingredients

    *If you end up with a thick caramel reduction of the pomegranate juice, don’t worry, just add 1-2 TBSP water, reheat, and mix constantly the juice.
