Ingredients

Ingredients:

2.5 ounces baby spinach
2.5 ounces baby arugula
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
1/3 cup sliced almonds

Lemon Garlic Dressing

1 clove garlic crushed
2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar

Instructions

Make the dressing first by whisking together garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, sugar, salt and pepper just until combined. Let set at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Combine spinach, arugula, almonds and pomegranate together in a bowl. Whisk the dressing once more and drizzle over the top. Toss. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve.

Notes

Don't dress the salad until you are ready to serve. It will wilt if dressed too early.

You may not need all of the dressing. You can store leftovers in the refrigerator, simply allow to come to room temperature before serving.
