A vibrantly purple and festive salad that combines red Belgian endives, pomegranate seeds, toasted walnuts, mint leaves and a honey Dijon mustard vinaigrette. Crumble some strong blue cheese over if desired. It's easy to make, delicious, nutritious and will liven up any meal.

- Toast the walnuts in a dry pan until they smell nutty. Cool, then roughly crush with clean hands.
- To make the dressing, put the garlic, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar and some seasoning into a bowl, and mix well, then slowly add the walnut oil and olive oil, whisking all the time, to create a thick emulsion.
- Generously dress the leaves in the dressing so that all the leaves are coated. Assemble the dressed leaves on a plate so that they are ready to catch the pomegranate seeds and walnuts. Scatter over the pomegranate seeds, crushed walnuts, mint and lemon zest, and drizzle with some extra olive oil, if you like.

...the Pomegranate seeds is a festive addition.
Can't get more excited about spring salads than this one! WOW
La escarola roja no la utilizo, pero sí la verde con granada, nos gusta mucho. Y en cuanto a la vinagreta, la encuentro muy buena, sencilla y asequible a los ingredientes normales que tenemos en casa.
Thank you, Angie, for such a wonderful recipe, still colorful and certainly delicious - salads like this I love. Have a good new week.
Angie, how colorful your salad is! It is eaten with the eyes.
Sounds like a delicious salad. Take care, enjoy your day and have a great week ahead.
Besutiful! And amazing color. I bet it tastes delicious and fresh. I like the sound of the dressing too.
Yummy
It has such a lovely colour and you did a lovely setting with the mint leaves and dark plates.
It's hard to find this lettuce here, but it's so healthy!
Love the combination of the bitter greens, the rich nuts and the strong cheese. My kind of salad. Karen (Back Road Journal)
