Zimmy’s Nook pulled together this simple but luscious salad that highlights the bright and tangy flavors of winter fruits, perfectly complemented by a simple honey Dijon vinaigrette. This salad is stunning for a special dinner but so simple you’ll want to get it on the table regularly.
Place the greens on a large platter. Add the, oranges, clementines and apple, then sprinkle with pomegranate arils and pecans.
Just before serving, drizzle about 1/2 cup of the dressing (more to taste) over the salad and gently toss.
Honey Dijon Dressing
Combine all ingredients in a glass jar (with a tight-fitting lid) and shake well to combine.
Refrigerate leftover dressing and use for another salad or drizzle on roasted vegetables.
Looks delish. I will be making this very soon.
