Ingredients

  • 2 cups lettuce or mixed greens
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • 1 small avocado diced
  • 2 ounces goat cheese crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons walnuts chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 boiled egg per serving for extra protein optional

Instructions

  • Prepare Base: Place lettuce in a large bowl or divide between plates.
  • Add Toppings: Scatter pomegranate seeds, avocado, goat cheese, walnuts, and sunflower seeds evenly over the greens.
  • Make Dressing: Whisk olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle over the salad.
  • Optional Protein: Slice boiled eggs and add for extra nutrition, if desired.
  • Store: Assemble without dressing and store in the fridge for up to 1 day. Dress just before serving to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Green Swap: Use arugula or steamed broccoli, for instance, for a different base.
  • Fruit Swap: Replace pomegranate with berries or apple, thus, adding variety.
  • Cheese Swap: Try feta or vegan cheese, for example, for dietary needs.
  • Nut-Free: Use pumpkin seeds instead of walnuts, so, accommodating allergies.
