feta cheese

🥗Healthier: goat cheese

Pumpkin seeds provide healthy fats and are often cheaper.

Take two pomegranates, peel them, and cut them into chunks.

De-seed a pomegranate under water to catch the seeds.

Fill a bowl with a layer of lado kale at the bottom.

Sprinkle a handful of pomegranate chunks on top of the kale.

Add another handful of pomegranate seeds around the salad.

Sprinkle walnuts and shaved Parmesan cheese on top.

Repeat the layering process to add volume to the salad.

For the dressing, finely dice one tablespoon of shallot and add it to a mason jar.

Add one tablespoon of Dijon mustard, one tablespoon of honey, the juice of one whole lemon, and about 1/4 cup of olive oil to the jar.

Add a sprinkle of salt and black pepper to the jar.

Close the jar and shake it well to mix the dressing.

Serve the salad with the dressing on the side.
