Ingredients

  • Dressing:
  • A generous ⅓ cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • A delicate touch of 1 tablespoon of pomegranate molasses
  • A hint of 1 tablespoon of white vinegar
  • A sprinkle of 1 teaspoon of sumac powder (Optional)
  • Seasoned with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Salad:
  • A burst of color with 1 cup of halved cherry tomatoes
  • 2 cups of vibrant arugula leaves
  • A handful of ¼ cup walnut halves

Step 1

Combine a zesty blend of freshly squeezed lemon juice, sweet pomegranate molasses, tangy vinegar, aromatic sumac, a pinch of salt, and a sprinkle of black pepper in a cozy little bowl to create a flavorful dressing bursting with vibrant flavors.

Step 2

In a spacious bowl, mingle the juicy cherry tomatoes, peppery arugula leaves, and crunchy walnut halves, creating a colorful and textured medley. Drizzle the luscious dressing over the salad mixture, allowing the flavors to meld harmoniously. Gently toss the salad until each ingredient is lovingly coated with the delectable dressing, ensuring a delightful burst of flavors in every bite.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep the arugula leaves fresh by storing them in a resealable plastic bag with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. This will help prevent wilting and keep the leaves crisp.
  2. 2. To maintain the vibrant color of the arugula, store it in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Make sure to place it away from ethylene-producing fruits like apples and bananas, which can cause the leaves to turn yellow.
