Pomegranate and Avocado Salad

Pomegranate and Avocado Salad

Tonight I made an incredibly fresh salad.  In fact it was incredible that I had to eat the whole
bowl of salad.  The fresh key lime on top of the avocado mixed with the tartness
of the pomegranate, the fresh spinach and the amazing mustard dressing.

-spinach
-avocado
-1/2 pomegranate
-carrots
-purple onions
-the juice of 2 key lime 
-salt and pepper

-Place baby spinach in a bowl, add chopped carrot and onion.
Remove seeds from pomegranate and place on top of salad.
In small bowl cut up avocado, dash with salt and pepper and the juice
of 2 key limes.

Mustard Dressing 

-1/4 cup olive oil 
-1/8 cup balsamic vinegar
-2 tablespoons maple syrup
-1 tablespoon smoked mustard
-1 tablespoon maple mustard
-1 tablespoon dijon mustard
-salt and pepper

mix together in a measuring cup...I taste as I go and add more
or less, accordingly.  This is a thick dressing and it was incredible with the 
lime juice, the pomegranate and the avocado.



Was a treat for my taste buds.
