Christmas Salad

I find myself making some variation of this often, this time of year. It goes something like this:

Mix salad greens (pretty ones) with some arugula, chopped up endive, pomegranate seeds, chopped red onion if you're feeling exciting, and some chunks of grapefruit.  Put the dressing on it (see below) and then crumble some herbed goat cheese and toasted walnuts on top. This salad tastes best during the month of December, for some reason. And it's very pretty- the pomegranate seeds look like little Christmas lights.*

This is how red my grapefruit was tonight.  I couldn't believe it!

I use this dressing- just add a little grapefruit juice and sugar if you like.  It's  perfect.

*Once I made this when I had some little nieces and nephews visiting.  They loved the pomegranate seeds- not to eat, but to use as tiny Christmas decorations. I found them sprinkled about, everywhere, long afterwards.
