The pleasant sour taste of pomegranate arils with a touch of sweetness complements the juicy, sunny sweetness of ripe tomatoes really well in this simple yet awesome salad. Use a mix of different tomoatoes, preferably heirloom varieties, for more colours, texture and flavours. It works as a fresh and healthy lunch with some homemade bread, or as an easy side to serve with grilled meat or seafood or whatever you enjoy.
