Look at those colors! Peppery arugula, juicy clementines, pomegranate seeds that pop when you bite them, crunchy fennel, creamy goat cheese and maple pecans made in a skillet. On top, a clementine juice and zest dressing with maple syrup. It’s fresh, it’s sweet and salty, and it tastes nothing like a plain green salad!<\/p>\n
It’s a beautiful Christmas starter, it goes great next to the turkey, and honestly, it goes with anything you want. On Christmas Eve, at a family dinner or a party, it always makes an impression. And if you feel like eating it for breakfast, go for it, I won’t judge!<\/p>\n
Invited to a holiday potluck? Bring the arugula, fruit, cheese, pecans and dressing separately, then put the salad together on the spot, right before serving. It shows up crisp, it looks like it came out of a restaurant, and everyone’s going to ask you for the recipe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
