Tasty Citrus Salad with Honey Dressing

August 8, 2022 | By | 2 Replies More

This recipe is an excellent addition to any lunch table, but I think it adds something extra special to a summer BBQ . Not only at this time of year, but also around Christmas and New Year when there is always an abundance of delicious citrus fruits. It’s sharp, sweet and refreshing taste enhances any cold cuts and makes a welcome change from the usual green salad that people tend to dress far too early and when in comes to serving it can be sad, wet and less than enjoyable. Give this a try and do please let me know what you think, I would love to get some feedback from my posting if you have a minute sometime, if only to let me know someone is out there.

You can also add a few green salad leaves if you wish. It’s delicious served with grilled salmon, prawns, cold chicken, baked white fish (Cod, Haddock, Hake, etc) and I love it served with a couple of pan fried Plaice fillets.

Paul’s Tip:  An easy way to remove pomegranate seeds is to cut the fruit in half then tap the skin side sharply with a wooden spoon handle and the seeds will just fall out.
