This pear and pomegranate salad is a fall and winter favorite. I'm always eager for pomegranates to be in season so I can make this again. I make my own pomegranate juice by pressing the seeds against a metal sieve.
Ingredients
- 3 cups green leaf lettuce , rinsed and torn
- 1 Bartlett or Anjou pear - halved , cored, and cut into slices

- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon prepared Dijon-style mustard
- 0.5 tablespoons honey
