Apple Pomegranate Lettuce Salads

Apple Lettuce Salad

During summer, most mid day meals are usually light and many a time, its salad and a large glass of a summer cooler or buttermilk, especially during the month of May. Today, I prepared a simple, colorful, crunchy, fruity salad, flecked with calcium rich toasted sesame seeds. Our lunch was salad and a mint flavored chilled lemonade.

In a bowl, whisk 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, large pinch of cinnamon pwd, few drops of lemon juice, pinch of salt and pepper to taste, 1/4 tbsp honey OR pineapple OR orange juice and a tbsp of toasted sesame seeds. Add 1 chopped apple, 1 peeled and chopped cucumber, grated small carrot, small bowl of pomegranate and washed and torn lettuce. Toss well till combined with dressing. Serve chilled.

You can add any fruit or nuts/raisins.
