Ingredients
  

Salad
  • 4 cups fresh spinach or a mix of leafy greens
  • 1 cup cooked and cooled farro
  • 2 medium apples thinly sliced
  • 1 large pomegranate seeded (about 1 cup of arils)
  • 4 ounces goat cheese crumbled
  • ½ cup candied pecans
Vinaigrette
  • ⅔ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar or substitute with pomegranate molasses
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Pour all vinaigrette ingredients into a mason jar and secure the lid tightly. Shake the jar vigorously until the dressing is well emulsified. Allow it to rest for at least 30 minutes, giving the flavors time to meld beautifully.
  2. In a large salad bowl, gently toss together the spinach, farro, sliced apples, pomegranate seeds, goat cheese, and candied pecans. Drizzle lightly with the vinaigrette just before serving, ensuring each bite is coated in the flavorful dressing. Serve immediately for the freshest taste and best texture.
